Today was a big day.
The skies were dull and the air was chilly, only adding to the sorrow many felt in their hearts.
"Papa... I've failed you. I didn't make it. I-I-I didn't make it. What am I going to do now?"
"Aiyy~... you cheer up. Life is not a marathon. It doesn't matter who crosses the finish line first because several years from now, you can be in a better situation than them. The important thing is that you do your best and acknowledge your weaknesses."
"Mama... I'm sorry, I passed but had the worst passing grade. I almost failed just there."
