Elyse stammered for a moment before finally managing to string a cohesive sentence. "Is it true?" Darren nodded. "My uncle mentioned that Cody is here with the express intent of taking an apprentice. He just never said who he wants it to be. He was silent on the matter, even on the second round of the competition."
He cocked his head to the side and stroked his chin. "As it is, they all think that Cody is going to make his decision after the concertmaster selection."
Elyse held her face in her hands, still trying to recover from the shock of this new information. It would be a great honor if she could become Cody's apprentice.
Darren noted the eager glint in her eyes and remarked, "You're a talented participant, for sure. Despite my uncle's reservations in acknowledging your skills, the fact that he privately requested for you to withdraw is proof enough that you're the one to beat in this competition." Elyse looked up at his calm face. "Aren't you worried? What if I take first place? I heard that you're a big fan of Cody as well. if you want to attract his attention and potentially bag his mentorship, you should be asking me to give up right now.""
"Quite right," he replied slowly. "But I'd still ike to win fair and square. What kind of victory is to be had if the strongest opponent bows out of the battle? That said, I do not support my uncle's thinking."
Elyse was taken aback. While Darren seemed to be an honest man, she couldn't shake off the doubt about whether he genuinely meant what he said.
"Well, I'm heading back to practice," she said, not wanting to talk to him anymore. "You should work on your mental fortitude, by the way. < Stage fright shouldn't be an issue for a
concertmaster. It would be a shame if it affects your performance." With that, she walked past Darren and left.
Not long after she arrived at the practice room, Wanda approached her with a glum look on her face. She asked Elyse to join her outside.
