A few minutes before that, the pair still tries to indicate that they are trying to stay sober. “We are not going to walk next to our shoes. It is all incredible what comes to you, even as a parent, but of course all this revolves around her. We are so terribly proud.”
The first emotion sounds when it comes to the way their daughter grabbed the world title, with an all -about -relevant punch in her last attempt. “Shall we not talk about that? That tension, those nerves, it cannot be described.”
Thirteen hours of flying
When Jessica almost comes the corner, Louis is still too angry. “The season is now over, the tension is off, then you finally have room for the emotion. Then we can finally hold her.” “Ho look, now I have to believe it myself,” he says apologetically to his wife.
Jessica herself, together with her parents, walks on to the car in one go. Burned down, after the adrenaline of the past days and a flight of more than thirteen hours. Tomorrow she immediately delves into the agenda to schedule everything that comes with her new status. And time for her parents? “We sometimes see if she might be popping up in Volendam this weekend. We are waiting quietly.”
