Friday night's electric atmosphere hummed in Hop's living room, the assembled trainers waiting for the final guest. Youthful impatience simmered beneath the chatter. When the door finally swung inward, all heads turned as one. Hop bounced on his heels, his joy palpable. Kieran rolled his eyes, his posture rigid with defiance. Jacq offered a gentle, understanding smile. Bede's gaze narrowed, seeking immediate justification. Gary reclined deeper into the couch, a smug grin curling his lips as he noted the familiar pattern of delay.
