Elena DEMENTYEV: "We were derelicts!".
Something we were late with the love to it... And why
So in general happens: fans give out love to one sportsman
In frequently simply advance payment, and another - a droplet behind a droplet
Collects feelings of fans, not trying to shock or
To start about itself improbable hearings, it is infinite tusovatsja and advertising
To pose in any society. Take care of the pence, the pounds will take care of themselves, speak
Old men, and droplets, being rolled poblizhe to each other,
Merge at last in small river.
There is a justice on light - and the love river comes nearer to
To Lena Dementevoj inevitably. It not the sea of blind adoration, and already
Mature feeling. Sustained, as good wine... Here and
Nicely, that we have not hastened, on a neck to the girl at once with the
Love have not rushed. But now there will be no divorce...
"At Dementevoj there are all data to become next sex -
Tennis symbol, but it it does not become, because never
Will open a blanket before public. It - a work of art, and
Not a spread. The magazine can be looked through, and a picture -
Hands not to touch, enjoy from afar. But a picture - forever,
In musorku in due course will not depart ", - philosophised somehow
The foreign colleague.
Alcohol, drugs are all not about Lena. In discrediting communications
Too it is not noticed: spitted out through a rotten teeth posleolimpijsky
Hearing whether about its love to Kafelnikov, whether Kafelnikov to it
Journalists also have rubbed in the earth - the dirt does not reach it.
Brilliants at press conferences, and especially on court not
Sparkles: an ornament does not like basically. Has reached that
Categorically does not consider itself as a star. Despite the effective
Appearance, does not test the slightest desire to test in
Fashionable role of model. And even mum of a star never is rude to nobody:
Journalists for a door does not expose, money for interview does not ask.
About what to write?
... All has begun with insult. While mum Belief savraskoj ran from
Laundry - in tournament office, from office - behind ice for sick
Daughter's foot, from impetuous journalistic language has broken
The silly assumption: "Such happiness - without mum to stay five minutes
- Not often drops out. Probably, to become crazy it is possible - each instant under
Sharp-sighted eye? "The sick foot was came in a spasm, and Lena - in anger:
- JA. I do not represent, as it is possible simply even to assume,
That for me absence of mum - happiness! There, in the childhood, when it
Went with me on children's tournaments in the third shelf reserved seat
The car (in the absence of money it to apply for the best places
Could not) when slept on a mattress with bugs near to my bed
In the hotel room which has become permeated with the smell of rotten stuff, - I without it not
vyzhilae It all time was meshochnitsej: a bag with a potato for
Shoulders, bags with canned food in hands, an electrotile on a head - and
Forward, on my tennis road, to cities of Soviet Union!
Know, I was the child only till seven years. In seven I has seen
Mum's tears. She, having spent two salaries, has bought to me dorogushchuju
Tennis racket, and the trainer, having turned it in hands, has said:
"Could not buy is worse?." After such words would cost
Pathetically to keep silent, but nonsense for some reason already overflowed:
All"big" tennis mums live at the expense of children. Somehow
It is a little blasphemous... "Mum has frozen, and the patient daughter's
The foot has prepared for a strong kick for a door. Mum has stroked it,
Calming:
- I do not live at the expense of the daughter - I live her life: my personal
Life - liked job, a silent family supper in a family circle, cinema with
The husband on days off... - has stopped with all these trips. And
It happens not today, when our route - London-PARIZH-nju -
York and when we reeled up kilometres on railways
Also did not dream at all of these cities. Simply helped children to survive in
To their liked infernal job. And nobody guaranteed it of it
Survivals. Here to Sowing, the elder son, very presented boy,
Traumas have thrown out from tennis. To it now 21 - and, fortunately, it
Has found itself out of a tennis life, studies in Baumanke...
The sick foot has calmed down, but Lena - is not present:
- Mum, well you all about the past, - and now?! I still sleep, and
Mum since five mornings in embassies costs. And as to me your intuition
Has helped to type points faster?. We did not know what to begin
It is necessary with desjatitysjachnika, pjatidesjatitysjachnika (prize-winning fund - $10
And 50 thousand). After all we on what tournaments to go began? On those,
Where tickets stand more cheaply. Points on such tournaments you will not earn
And upwards on a rating you will not rise. So, the international training
With marking time... And suddenly in one perfect day mum to me and
Speaks: "Everything, Lena, we fasten, we leave in people!" But in "people",
That is on tournaments with normal prize-winning fund, from the significant
Grid, with points, nobody waited for us. And we went on "the fifteenth
In a miss ". It means, that in a grid of 32 participants. 15 in qualification,
And I - the sixteenth - wait "hour of triumph", when somebody
Will refuse, will be ill... To All of us spoke: "be not foolish, for nothing
Will wait, only money will spend! "But mum accurately knew, that
On such tournament I will get. And it is exact! Got! But the first
Time are there were "tournaments of three matches" as I have nicknamed them. I
Gave itself any silly installation: to pass "kvalifaj".
Left in the first circle - ie lost, and to competitors,
Which had no moral right to lose. A life on it
Came to an end. Sobbed, was angry! By the way, a lightning rod role - too
The mum's. On whom I break, on whom I throw out weariness?.
Mum-lightning rod looks fool in the face:
- You have children? Know, what the most terrible for mother?
It when your child that sobs, suddenly sharply becomes silent,
Having closed from you in a toilet. And you face to a door. And it is terrible
Not from that you can not calm him, and that you not
You know, why he has become silent.
Lena with horror looks at mum:
- Well you, mums, I strong! And rigid. Tennis has made me
More rigidly and more ruthlessly and to itself, and, unfortunately, to relatives...
Mum does not argue:
- At such daily psychological pressure to remain
Soft it is possible only outwardly. One day prior to a match you begin
To scroll it in a head, at night you unconsciously too on court,
Then - igrae If earlier two days prior to tournament Lena places to itself
Did not find, could not sleep, now these problems in the past. But
Before game it all the same remains on an emotional limit. And
Such constant fire of emotions leaves internal burns -
The person ceases to be supersensitive...
The fire of emotions storms not only on court, though Lena
Asserts, that has picked up from all types of character gradually. It
Both the phlegmatic person, and the choleric person, and the sanguine person... But try phlegmatically
To say the following:
- I never in a life tested such shock, as on
To the Olympic Games! One day prior to opening to me have approached and have asked, I do not want
Whether I to be the assistant to the standard-bearer. I have thought, what is it a joke:
Around it is so much champions! Then I followed a flag of Russia, and me
Simply held apart with pride and bewilderment: "For what to me such
Honour?! "And honour was not for beautiful eyes: for a week before
Dementyev left in a semi-final "US OPEN". The first of ours
Tennis-players. And a week later has won Olympic Games "silver".
Too for the first time in history Russia.
- We, tennis players, have arrived on the Olympic Games to roles any
Derelicts. My word upon it! Has begun that everyone in Olympic
To village, having approximated eyes till the size of a medal, strutters same
Question: "And you that, with us in village, instead of in the five-stars
Hotels, will live?! "-" with you ". Then we open with Alenkoj
Lihovtsevoj broshjurku about the Russian national team, and there - data about that,
How much from whom for medals wait. From us not only medals, but, judging
In the text, even for advantage any did not wait... "We will look -
Let's look... "- I have thought and"have nursed a grievance". Eugene Kafelnikov
I have won "gold", and - "silver" and so we became high-grade
Members of a Russian national team, having proved, that we like the country not less, than
Someone.
Kohl speech has come about love, it was necessary to pick out a whisper from the earth
About feelings to Kafelnikov.
- Yes you that, what novel! It is never simple on tournaments we
Communicated, and in Sydney came to hang together, because
Were torn to one purpose: to prove to everything, as tennis players -
Decent people.
In Sydney Lena has simply fascinated all. "My God, - were thrilled in delight
Journalists, - such simple girl, not the conceited person, not pathos, and
umnichka what! "Umnichka, having released from an overall objective, without
Have got tired spent an educational program, opening secrets of tennis court yard:
- All surprised, that air flights from one doomsday in
We pay another. Hotels to us pay only for days
Games and if has arrived earlier for two-three days, for trainings and
Acclimatisation, or has taken off from tournament and the plane not in same
Day for hotel you pay itself. Visas, demands for tournaments, all
orgvoprosy - your personal problems...
Much told about the colleagues. That Vinus Williams
Only on court calls fear, and in a life - a divine dandelion,
What light did not see. And Dzhennifer Kapriati has made the impossible:
Has got out of such bog that it is possible to bend only
Knees before its courage!
- And I here now cannot be restored after traumas in any way and
Periodically I ache: "Mums, can, me to throw everything, to study to go? And -
a-a-a-a?. "Mum - in the answer:" Go. Only then do not groan, that
You regret about the thrown tennis ". In general, my dream - to receive
Good education. I am assured: it will come true. To me, fie-fie -
Fie, carries on execution of desires.
The happy! And here one of its numerous admirers wants
To be always near to Dementevoj and plaintively begged: "you only
Pass it, that it - my guiding star, the most beautiful on
The sky! "Another would become proud, and Lena in the answer only laughs:
- And represent, me once the boy (we together
Trained) has told: "Dementyev, look, what girls
Around beautiful, and tye You on a horse are similar! "... On a court yard already
Autumn - the season most liked for Lena.
Also the most like grows in a life of a star the tennis
Tournament - the Cup of the Kremlin. It, the tennis-player to the core, not
Likes, for example, Wimbledon. It has more to liking and our courts, and ours
Spectators. "Style - a thing changeable, - is confirmed by Lena. - today
You attack, and tomorrow - throw candles ". But it - if to speak
Exclusively about game. The fantastic girl has incorporated all
Qualities with which the most exacting spectator tries to allocate
The idols. Lena Dementyev is brought up so, that to us only and
It is necessary - to gasp and conceal breath. And then to shroud in its cloud
The deserved admiration and by that to try to heal burns.
She will not forget them, but will know, that tore and mum's
I smother knowingly...
Valentina Krasnyh, Irina Stepantseva.
