Brian was in college studying astrophysics, he was a straight-A student, perfectionist and always the top of his classes; so when his newest physics exam came back as a D- he was severely dissapointed in himself.

Astrophysics was his passion, how could he fail like this?

Not only was he angry at himself but he knew his parents would get mad. Of course, he was an adult but their opinions mattered a lot to him.

So there he was, in the front of the class, trying to hold back his tears whilst reading through the incorrect-marked answers; the worst part is… he didn’t even know what was wrong about them.

Brian quickly put the exam in his bag to not let others see his failure and headed to the restroom.

In the restroom he looks at his reflection in the mirror as tears start to run down his cheeks.

“Can’t even look at myself… How am I this stupid..?”

Brian suddenly heard someone enter and quickly headed into a stall to not be seen in this state.
