All the competitors from Pingla are already here, including those who won't be competing today, leaving only Cindy Clarke still absent.
"Why hasn't Cindy arrived yet?" Hunter Clarke kept checking the time.
"We have an hour and a half left, there's still time." Wesley Gordon tried to reassure him, but his face showed visible anxiety.
"You say an hour and a half, but the Indian Triad will be here at the latest by 10 o'clock. If Cindy isn't here by then, it'll be too late." Hunter Clarke pointed out, "When we introduce the competitors, it would be bad optics if one of them wasn't present. It would be useless if she arrived just before 10:30."
"We still have an hour left." Wesley Gordon insisted.
Still, Wesley couldn't help but plan who would replace Cindy if she really didn't make it.
