You accepted Carol's invitation for a trip. You were on Christmas break from college, so, it came at the best time. During the trip, you receive a letter with your scores but you put it in your pocket and decide to not open it now

When you were visiting a crowded museum with Carol, you opened your letter and read that you failed some subjects. You start to cry. Carol realizes that and opens her fur coat, hugging you and hiding you with it, so that no one sees you cry

"Are you okay, dear?"
