Chapter 55

Tom's jump during the Paris Olympics opening ceremony became one of the most talked about moments around the world. On social media, news channels, TV shows, and even in casual chats, people discussed the precision, courage, and spectacle of the jump. Tom's feat was described as the "most iconic way to carry the Olympic flag" at an opening ceremony, elevating him to legendary status.

The next morning, Kim and Tom were at their hotel, drinking coffee while their phones kept buzzing with notifications. Kim smiled as she watched the children excitedly running around the lobby, showing all the hotel staff photos of "Uncle Tom" jumping.

"Tom, you have to see this," Kim said, laughing as she showed off a series of memes comparing him to James Bond on a secret Olympic mission. "The world is going crazy over your jump."

Tom shook his head, surprised by the response.

— "I knew it would have an impact, but I didn't expect this reaction. And have you seen how excited the kids are? They practically feel like they're part of this event."

Soon, every TV channel was broadcasting reports on the jump. One of the hosts on a popular morning show was full of praise:

— "This is military-grade execution, folks! That jump wasn't just impressive — it was absolutely flawless. Tom, with his SAS background, brought precision and emotion to the ceremony. How many people can say that a special forces veteran carried the Olympic flag in a spectacular jump?"

The audience watched slow-motion footage of the jump, showing every detail of Tom's movements in the air. The instrumental music playing in the background gave the scene a dramatic tone. The anchors commented on each maneuver, speculating on how he managed to do it all with such ease.

— "That first somersault was breathtaking! It was like something out of a movie," exclaimed a reporter, clearly in awe. "Tom showed incredible confidence."

Other programs began to discuss the impact of Tom's jump. On one talk show, the host brought in a military expert, a former paratrooper in the French armed forces, to comment on the level of skill required for such a jump.

— "The precision and control he showed is something rarely seen, even among the most experienced paratroopers. And considering the size of the flag and the responsibility of keeping that symbol intact… It was absolutely impressive. Not just anyone can pull something like that off," said the expert.

On social media, Tom's name was among the most talked about topics. Videos of his jump received millions of likes and shares, accompanied by comments praising his professionalism and courage. In one post, one user wrote:

— "Forget James Bond! Tom is the real hero here! Who would have thought a special forces operator would put on such a show at the Olympics?"

Another user commented:

— "The jump was so impressive I wonder if he's human! The precision, the acrobatics… The world needs more moments like this at the opening ceremonies."

Kardashian family fan profiles also shared the reactions of Kim and the children, who were thrilled with Tom's feat, calling him "the best uncle in the world" and "the true hero of the Olympics".

The image of North and Saint jumping for joy in the stadium became one of the most liked photos, showing that the pride and excitement of the Kardashian family contributed to the success of the event.

Tom received several messages from friends and military colleagues who were full of praise for his feat. Some were close friends, others veterans he hadn't seen in years, but who made a point of congratulating him. Among the messages, he saw one from a former SAS comrade, who wrote:

"You continue to make us all proud, brother. Your jump was legendary. And the precision? Impeccable! I don't think I've ever seen an Olympic skydiver like you."

Tom couldn't help but smile when he read the words of his former colleagues. Despite his life changing so much, he still carried with him that pride of representing the values ​​and excellence of the special forces.

Kim was also receiving attention and messages from friends and family who wanted to congratulate her for having someone so special by her side.

— "Kim, congrats on Tom's jump! He is incredible. You two are truly a power couple," wrote one of her friends.

Kendall and Kylie, who were watching from Los Angeles, sent several messages praising the feat.

— "Kim, seriously, Tom killed it. We are watching the video for the thousandth time!" wrote Kylie.

Khloe, always witty, commented:

— "I will say I am a little jealous of his jump. I need to start practicing!"

International media continued to highlight Tom's impact. An article in a famous British newspaper praised the jump as one of the "best representations of Olympic pride and military professionalism" that the public had ever seen.

Journalists mentioned how much Tom's military background contributed to the emotion and symbolism of the moment.

In a live interview, the host of a cultural debate program said:

— "Tom brought an aspect of bravery and a touch of cinema to the ceremony. It's like we saw 007 himself in action, and it's something that will be remembered for years."

Another journalist asked the guest, a famous sports commentator:

— "Do you think Tom may have created a trend? Will we start seeing parachute jumps with Olympic flags in future ceremonies?"

The commentator laughed and replied:

— "Tom may have set the bar very high for future Olympics. It's going to be hard to top something like that!"

At home, after the ceremony, the Kardashian family made sure to celebrate Tom's achievement with a special dinner. Kris hosted an intimate gathering decorated with Olympic flags and mementos from the ceremony.

Everyone toasted Tom's dive, with Kim by his side, looking up at him with undeniable pride.

During dinner, the kids couldn't stop talking about the dive and its tricks.

"Uncle Tom, are you going to do that again at the next Olympics?" North asked, her eyes shining.

Tom laughed and replied,

"Well, who knows? Maybe I'll have to come up with more tricks for the next one."

Kourtney and Khloe toasted Tom's courage, saying,

"You really did surprise the world, Tom. And we're so proud of you."

The evening ended with laughter and stories, as Tom and Kim reflected on how he had unexpectedly turned an Olympic dive into an unforgettable and legendary moment.

Tom slept that night feeling truly at peace, knowing that while his past in the special forces had been extraordinary, his present, with Kim and his family, had become just as remarkable.

Chapter 56

The scandal involving rapper and producer P Diddy has hit the world of celebrities and the media like a bombshell. With each new piece of news, the revelations have become more disturbing, detailing abusive behavior and allegations of harassment and violence against several people.

Tom, like many others, has followed the updates with growing revulsion and anger that has intensified as he has read more about the accusations.

One night, after watching yet another report on the case, Tom turned off the television with a somber and thoughtful expression. He knew that Diddy had a close relationship with many people in Kim and her sisters' social circle, and this has deeply bothered him. So, he decided to talk to Kim and clear up his doubts.

— "Kim, can you come here for a minute?" Tom called her from the living room, trying to remain calm, but still visibly uncomfortable.

Kim, noticing the serious tone in Tom's voice, went over to him and sat down next to him on the couch.

— "What's wrong, Tom?" She asked, touching his arm with a worried look.

Tom took a deep breath, trying to gather his thoughts before speaking.

— "I… I was watching the coverage of Diddy's case, and honestly, it sickens me," he began, looking directly at Kim. "I know he's always been close to some people in your circle. Have you ever suspected anything? Or… has he ever tried something with you or your sisters?"

Kim frowned, clearly uncomfortable with the subject, but understanding Tom's concern.

— "I understand how you're feeling, Tom. The truth is, yes, he's always been close to our circle, but I've never heard of anything like this… nothing this serious," she sighed. "Those kinds of things… you never imagine, you know? Diddy was always seen as a big figure in the scene, and he was… well, I thought he was a friend."

Tom's face softened a little, but he was still serious.

— "What about your sisters? I would feel a lot more at ease if I knew he never tried to get close to any of them in an inappropriate way."

Kim held Tom's hand, trying to reassure him. "Do you want to talk to them? I'm sure they'll understand your concern."

Tom agreed, so Kim called Kendall, Khloe, and Kylie, who were talking upstairs. When they all arrived, they sat around the living room, curious about the reason for the sudden meeting.

Kendall was the first to notice Tom and Kim's serious expressions. "Is everything okay? You guys look worried," she said, crossing her legs and watching Tom.

"I'll get straight to the point," Tom began bluntly. "Have you been following the Diddy scandal? These things that are coming out… they're very serious."

The Kardashian sisters nodded, some of them clearly uncomfortable with the subject.

Khloe, always direct, was the first to respond.

"Yes, Tom. It's horrible what they're saying about him. I honestly never imagined he was capable of such things," she said, shaking her head in disapproval.

Tom continued, seriously. "I just need to know… has he ever been inappropriate with any of you? Has he ever tried anything?"

Kylie sighed hesitantly before answering. "Look, he's always been very friendly, and I don't mean this in a suspicious way, but… now that you ask, he could be a little intense sometimes, you know? He'd ask about our personal lives, ask us things that weren't his business… but I was never treated abusively."

Kendall shook her head, her expression uncomfortable. "I would say the same. He was always very involved and showed interest, but… I never really thought about it," she admitted, looking uncertain.

"It's really shocking to see what's coming out now. It never crossed my mind that he would do something like that."

Tom felt relieved, but the anger at Diddy's behavior still burned in his expression. He nodded, pleased to know that the Kardashian sisters had not been direct victims, but still, the unease remained.

— "I'm relieved that you weren't targeted by anything more serious. It's unbelievable how some people hide such horrible sides of their personalities," he said, rubbing his face.

Khloe nodded, agreeing with Tom's sentiment.

— "It's really disgusting, Tom. We're as shocked as you are, and believe me, we will not have any more ties to him. We will not allow someone like that to remain in our circle," Khloe assured.

Tom felt more relieved by their response, but he was still disturbed by what he had heard about Diddy. He knew that there were people willing to do anything to keep their lives and reputations intact, but he always hoped that Kim's circle was safe.

Kim noticed the tension in Tom's face and placed her hand on his, trying to reassure him.

— "You care about us a lot, and that's wonderful, Tom. But we're fine, and we're keeping an eye on things now, especially with these revelations. We know what he did and that's enough to never trust him again."

Kendall looked at Tom, noticing that he was still thoughtful.

"Don't worry, Tom," she said softly. "With you around, we know we're safe."

Tom smiled, grateful for the trust they showed in him. From that moment on, he knew he wouldn't have to worry so much anymore, but he was also fully aware that he would always be vigilant about who was around the Kardashian family.

Chapter 57

Years have passed since Tom and Kim met and embarked on the journey of a relationship that, in the eyes of everyone, seemed unlikely, but which proved to be strong and full of companionship. Between moments of fun, challenges and family unity, they built a solid home full of love.

The wedding was an intimate and charming ceremony, surrounded by family and friends. Tom and Kim said their vows with sincerity and emotion, and Kim's children, who already saw Tom as part of the family, celebrated enthusiastically. Years later, the couple had a son together, a boy who soon became the joy of the house, completing the circle of happiness that united them even more.

On an autumn afternoon, Tom and Kim were sitting on their porch, watching Kim's older children, now young adults, playing in the garden with their younger brother. The scene was peaceful and full of life. The leaves were falling gently from the trees, and the sun cast a soft light on the lawn, illuminating the landscape with golden tones.

Tom looked at Kim, smiling as the cool autumn breeze played with her hair. He held her hand, feeling a deep gratitude for all the years they had shared and the memories they had made together.

— "I never imagined life would bring me here," he said, his eyes reflective. "If someone had told me twenty years ago that I would be here, married to you, raising a family… I probably would have laughed and thought it all so unlikely."

Kim smiled back, squeezing his hand.

— "Life has a funny way of surprising us, doesn't it? I never imagined someone like you would come into my life either," she said, her eyes twinkling. "But I'm grateful for every moment. You brought something I didn't even know I was looking for."

Tom watched his children laughing together in the garden. His youngest son, with the energy characteristic of a child, ran after his older brothers, who pretended to be caught, laughing and encouraging the little one to keep trying. He couldn't help but feel immensely proud to see them so happy.

— "Our boy is a force of nature, isn't he?" Tom commented, laughing. "He reminds me of myself when I was younger. But at the same time, he has so much of you in him."

Kim laughed, shaking her head.

— "I think he's the perfect mix of both of us," she replied. "He has your determination and courage, but he's also caring and sensitive. Sometimes I see him so protective of his brothers… that's so you."

Tom smiled, shaking his head, thinking of all the moments they'd shared, from their first meetings, the challenges they'd faced together, to the shared laughter and the comfort they'd found in each other.

Suddenly, his youngest son came running up, interrupting his thoughts.

— "Daddy, come play with us!" he asked, holding Tom's hand tightly.

Tom looked at Kim, who just smiled and nodded, encouraging him to go. He then stood up, putting aside any sign of fatigue, and ran to join his children.

As she watched the scene, Kim felt a wave of emotion engulf her. Seeing Tom playing with the children filled her with happiness. He had always been devoted and protective, not only to her, but also to her older children, who had long considered him a father figure.

The bond between them was genuine, and Tom's presence became an important foundation for the family.

Later, after a day filled with laughter and memories, everyone gathered around the table for dinner. Kim's older children began to share stories from their childhood, remembering the times when Tom had been a steady and present figure.

"Remember when you took us to the shooting range for the first time?" one of the sons asked, laughing. "We were amazed at your skill, but you were always patient and taught us so carefully."

Tom laughed, nodding.

"I remember well. You were so anxious, but you were also incredibly disciplined," he replied, smiling. "I think it's important to teach responsibility, and you've always been willing to learn."

The eldest daughter smiled at Tom, her eyes shining with affection.

— "You've always been more than a stepfather to us. You've never treated us any differently, and I thank you for that," she said, her voice soft and sincere.

Kim held Tom's hand under the table, touched by her daughter's words. They shared a look full of love and understanding, a silent acknowledgment of how much their union meant to the whole family.

After dinner, Kim and Tom went back to the porch, where night was already falling, bringing an even deeper tranquility. The sky was dotted with stars, and the soft sound of their children's laughter in the distance created a calm and comforting melody.

— "We have a good life, don't we?" Kim whispered, looking up at the sky.

Tom nodded, pulling her closer.

— "Yes, we do. And I wouldn't trade it for nothing," he said, hugging her. "We've been through a lot, but each challenge has brought us here."

She rested her head on his shoulder, enjoying the warmth of his embrace and the moment of peace. "I'm ready for whatever comes next," she said confidently. "As long as we're together, I know we can face anything."

Tom smiled, holding her affectionately. "I'll always be by your side, Kim. And I'll protect you and our children for the rest of my life."

They remained silent, watching the night and the future that still unfolded before them, together, side by side, enjoying the life they had built with love and dedication.
