Hi, I'm Ava from Ohio.

Please don't forget to like and subscribe to MSA.

School was always a breeze for me.

I aced all my classes.

Math, English, science, you name it.

All A's.

But grades were never my main concern because I had a bigger dream.

To become an Olympic gymnast.

My gymnastics coach Jenny saw potential in me.

I was her star student and she was confident I'd bring home a gold medal someday.

Jenny was more than a coach to me.

She was like a second mom.

She'd invite me over for dinner after practices.

You see, my own mom wasn't a bad person, but we didn't always get along perfectly.

She was often moody and quick to anger, which made my three older brothers keep their distance as much as possible.

I knew she wasn't a bad person, she was just a bit challenging at times.

And hanging out with Jenny just felt easier.

One night, after a really hard practice, Jenny saw I was feeling down.

So she took me to her place, picked out some inspiring sports movies, and got my favorite snacks ready.

everyone what it means to love what you do.

That's why you're amazing.

We laughed, cried a bit watching the movies, and talked about our dreams.

But Jenny had one flaw: her daughter.

Becca, a year older than me, often behaved like she was five years younger than me.

She was impulsive and wild.

Becca would dress weirdly and act irrationally, and she never respected Jenny.

During dinner one time, she showed up wearing the brightest neon colors and chewing gum.

"You know, Mom, I always thought I looked like you, And I suddenly realized that I was pretty.

Like, model pretty.

So there's no way I look like you, because, Mom, let's face it, you're ugly.

Well, I'd love for my daughter to be prettier than me.

Any real mom would love that.

Real mom?

Yeah, right.

You're a hypocrite who's too busy kissing her trainee's butt for some extra money.

No, she's nice to me because I'm good with her and treat her well.

So why don't you go home and be good with your own mom?

This is not normal.

You have your family.

Spend time with them.

Try it.

It's okay, Jenny.

I'm leaving anyway.

Are you joining us for breakfast?

Then maybe Mom might make breakfast for a change.

Otherwise, she's hurrying off every morning for your training sessions.

And with that, she left for some late party.

Jenny apologized to me and I said it was fine.

I kissed her cheek and left.

But after that day, Jenny suddenly changed.

She became distant and colder towards me.

Then, unexpectedly, she said she couldn't be my coach anymore.

With the Olympic trials just a month away, I couldn't understand why.

Why are you quitting on me now?

You're amazing.

Really.

It's just - Is it because of Becca?

I promise.

I'll stop hanging out at your place.

She wouldn't spill what was really going on.

She just kept crying and saying she was sorry and then shut down her gym.

Next thing I knew, she'd even moved from her current place.

I was crushed.

I stayed in my room for days, feeling really down.

I thought I was done with gymnastics.

Without Jenny, it seemed pointless.

I swore I'd never practice again.

to make me feel better.

I even tried reaching out to Jenny, but no luck there.

Then one day, mom came into my room and said something that really hit me hard.

"You're my favorite, and it hurts me to see you this sad.

I know it's tough, but your talent and determination make me so proud to be your mom.

Maybe you could try to start training again?" What mom said really affected me.

Even though she had always let me do what I wanted, I never really knew she appreciated my

focus on the love I had for my real mom and her encouragement made it feel right to pick up gymnastics again.

But little did I know, training for the Olympics on my own would be a lot harder than I'd imagined.

Especially when I found out that Olivia, the richest and most popular girl in school, was a gymnast too.

And she was going to do anything to get me to give up.

She'd turn up in the gym whenever I was practicing and kept ruining my focus with her dumb comments.

Next, my equipment started disappearing from my locker.

trying to sabotage me.

So I started hiding it in the school boiler room.

Olivia had a boyfriend named Derek.

He was a nice guy.

Not like Olivia at all.

He wasn't rich or from her social circle.

And I thought Olivia was only with him because he was attractive and seemed perfect.

They often fought in public.

Olivia would yell at him, calling him terrible names.

When he finally said he wanted to break up, she'd start crying and begging for forgiveness, making a scene until he stayed.

which was odd because she was usually so tough and bossy.

One day, while I was practicing my routine in the school gymnasium, Derek saw me do two full rotations in a pipe position during basketball practice.

Whoa, Ava, that was amazing!

How'd you learn to do that?

I told him I was naturally good at most sports, and we were having a good time talking when Olivia walked into the gym.

And when she saw the two of us together, she got jealous.

Nice shirt, Ava.

Where did you get it from?

The lost and found?

100

Oh, babe, that wasn't very nice.

101

Joking, Derek?

102

It looks awful.

103

I don't think it's awful at all.

104

Why are you always like this?

105

As the two of them started fighting, I walked out of the gym to avoid their drama.

106

Then, later that day, Derek caught up with me and said he and Olivia had broken up.

107

Ava, would you like to have dinner with me sometime?

108

Are you asking me out?

109

Yeah, is that okay?

110

Isn't it too soon?

111

You just broke up with Olivia.

112

I've broken up with her a hundred times before, Ava.

113

Our relationship's been over for a long time, but if you don't feel comfortable with this, I understand.

114

I guess losing my coach and training alone had made me feel quite low lately.

115

And Derek seems like a nice guy, so I said yes.

116

That was a huge mistake.

117

At first, Derek was great.

118

He was fun and seemed to care a lot, and I appreciated his love and support.

119

But after a few days, Derek started to act like I owed him everything.

120

He got super clingy and always wanted me to hang out with him.

121

I can't today, I have practice.

122

snob.

123

Suddenly, I could see through him.

124

He was just trying to mess with my head.

125

Maybe even Olivia had put him up to it to throw me off my training.

126

I see what you're up to, Derek, but why?

127

Are you just playing games like you did with Olivia?

128

Or are you caught up in Olivia's games?

129

Do you really see what I'm up to?

130

Here's a clue.

131

Coach Jenny.

132

What does Coach Jenny have to do with you?

133

Let me spell it out for you.

134

Becca, Jenny's daughter.

135

What?

136

Why would you be involved with that psycho?

137

Don't call her that, okay?

138

I don't like that.

139

Oh, wow.

140

So there is someone who sent you to ruin my life, but it's not Olivia.

141

It's Becca?

142

Oh, Olivia's nobody.

143

Her tough act is just a facade.

144

She's the weakest person I've met.

145

I had the best time with her.

146

She'd buy me whatever food I wanted.

147

Yes, she's crazy and would call me names whenever I drove her mad, but she'd regret it instantly like a scared toddler.

148

Okay, listen.

149

I'm bored of this drama already.

150

It's over, we're over.

151

I go back to my training and you go back to your girl.

152

Olivia if you're hungry or Becca if you're thirsty.

153

After what we did to Jenny, you think we'd stop?

154

It's your turn, babe.

155

What do you mean?

156

What did you do to Jenny?

157

Man, you're annoying.

158

I'm out of here.

159

Just go home.

160

With that, he stormed off.

161

I felt a mix of confusion and worry.

162

What had they done to Jenny?

163

And what was happening at my house?

164

Driven by fear, I rushed home.

165

And upon arriving, I was shocked to see smoke billowing from the house.

166

I ran to my neighbors, who immediately called 911.

167

The police and firefighters arrived on the scene in minutes.

168

Fortunately, nobody was able to see the smoke billowing from the house was home, so there were no injuries.

169

And because I got there when I did, the house didn't suffer much damage.

170

I shared Derek's comments with the police, but they got back to me later saying he denied having said anything of the sort, and they had no proof to take any action against him.

171

Also, when they'd tracked Jenny's address down and gone to her place, her daughter had answered the door saying she was completely fine.

172

Becca can't be trusted.

173

Can you please give me the address so I can make sure?

174

That's private information, ma 'am.

175

We can't disclose it.

176

You are not related to Miss says she is okay.

177

We have no reason to believe otherwise.

178

After the fire incident, I felt upset and lost and unable to focus on anything.

179

Finally, I decided to meet up with Olivia and told her everything, who was apparently also fed up with Derek for being a manipulative jerk.

180

I know we're not friends, but sometimes you have to join forces with an enemy to take down a common one.

181

Do you have any clue what Derek meant?

182

He once introduced me to his cousin named Becca,

183

which was obviously I actually have Becca's number.

184

Can you reach out to her?

185

Get her to meet me, please?

186

I have to find out if Jenny is okay.

187

I might do that.

188

Or maybe even more.

189

My dad can hire someone to track down Jenny for you.

190

And in exchange, you want me to back out of the competition, so you have a better shot at winning, huh?

191

Exactly.

192

Deal.

193

But for now, can you arrange a meeting with her?

194

Just tell her you want to meet her.

195

Don't mention me, of course.

196

The night before the big meetup with Becca, I couldn't shake off the unease.

197

I was about to trade my dreams for some peace of mind.

198

All the Sweat and tears I'd shed in the gym would go to waste.

199

But I also needed to know if Jenny was okay.

200

So I ended up pouring my heart out to my mom.

201

I didn't expect much, honestly.

202

But mom, in her own surprising way, gave me the clarity I desperately needed.

203

Ava, sometimes the hardest choices reveal our true priorities.

204

It's not just about winning or losing.

205

It's about what you're willing to fight for.

206

Remember, your value isn't measured by a medal, but by the courage to follow your heart.

207

Even when it leads down a difficult path, with me.

208

I was going to meet Becca tomorrow.

209

When I arrived at the cafe, Olivia was waiting for me at the entrance.

210

Her look had a hint of sympathy.

211

Becca isn't alone.

212

Jenny is here too, and I think there's something wrong here.

213

It's like Becca treats Jenny as a slave.

214

She brought her to this meeting to hold her bags and stuff.

215

I was stunned for a few moments.

216

The thought of seeing Jenny made me emotional.

217

Olivia stayed with me for a couple of minutes outside until I calmed down.

218

Then I went inside.

219

Ava, you can't be here.

220

Tears welled up in my eyes.

221

Why?

222

What's going on?

223

Here come the tears.

224

Let's hold hands and cry.

225

What are you even doing here, Ava?

226

Ava, you know I care about you, but Becca, she's...

227

What, Mom?

228

Say it, Jenny.

229

This is your chance.

230

Becca, you've been unstable.

231

She threatened me, Ava.

232

It was getting out of hand.

233

One day, she tried to do what she and Derek did to your house while locking me in the bathroom.

234

She said she'd let me out, only if I promised to close my gym and stop training you.

235

I'd do anything to ruin you and Ava.

236

Derek and I have more plans.

237

Derek is the only one who loves me and worship me.

238

I always loved you, but I couldn't make you happy.

239

Oh, shut up.

240

Suddenly, Becca lunged at her mom.

241

Right then, police officers surrounded us and restrained Becca.

242

Becca, you're going to need to come with us.

243

We've heard enough, and it sounds serious, so you and Derek might be facing juvenile detention.

244

Olivia and I had called the police beforehand in case Becca made any confessions, and they heard everything.

245

Thanks, Olivia.

246

Giving up the competition felt worth it.

247

Winning only means something if I compete with the best and that's you, Ava.

248

I guess this is me trying to do the right thing for once.

249

So this is about respect?

250

Yeah, respect and maybe a bit of trying to be better myself.

251

I'm sorry for everything, Ava.

252

She winked and walked away.

253

Overwhelmed with gratitude, I hugged Jenny again.

254

Although I could feel how hurt she was over Becca.

255

Looks like we're back to the hard training.

256

Just like old times.

257

And Becca, she'll always be my daughter.

258

Two weeks later, standing on the stage, I won first place.

259

Surrounded by my proud mom, Jenny's joy, my brother's support, and even Olivia's half smile, I felt on top of the world.

260

True victory comes from within, beyond any medal.
