Mr. Hammer's class was incredibly tiring. we spent an hour studying the parabola. i hated it. he would try to help me but it only frustrated me more. Sunny and Ben sat in the front row, whilst I was in the back of the room. I was eagerly anticipating the moment when the period would end. i then realized that report cards came home today. fear struck my face as i stared at my report card Mr. Hammer gave to me. "An.. F." I gloomily muttered. Suddenly, my whole happy motivation was gone. i feared for what after school would bring. other classes were relatively fast and a blur. soon it was time for lunch. "35 minutes of pure bliss!" I said, relieved. I met up with Sunny and ben at a white lunch table. I got reminded of the report cards, and my eyes became teary-eyed. my friends started asking me questions and i burst out sobbing saying that i stubbed my toe.

"shh, Nalti. What happened?.." Sunny spoke in a soft voice, gentle and motherly. I hung my head low. i handed over my report card to her. i tried to contain my tears but i couldn't. big fat tears were rolling down my cheeks. she handed it back to me, apologetically saying that she was sorry. i got nauseated from the worrying, so i asked to be sent home. the receptionist obliged and gave me a sticker. i ran home, sobbed in my pillow and fell asleep. the time was 12:36 PM.
