After the rain comes the sun - Chapter 60
"I'm sure I got an F, that's why the teacher is so serious! Oh, what am I going to do now? Mom is going to kill me!" Panic began to overwhelm Fran as the teacher, still with a serious face, slowly walked towards his desk. Mateo noticed Fran's obvious worry and encouragingly patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry Fran, I'm sure everything will be okay."

His words did not help Fran at all. They sounded empty and meaningless, and the worry still lingered in Fran's heart, which continued to beat wildly. When the teacher reached his desk, he sat down and directed his gaze towards the students. He took a bundle of tests in his hand and raised them in the air, then with deep disappointment in his voice, he said, "My dear students. I give you such an easy test, and you still disappoint me."
With those words spoken, the teacher shook his head and looked away to calm himself. Fran felt tears welling up in his eyes. "I knew it," he muttered to himself, struggling not to show the tears that were coming to his eyes. Mateo looked at him with great concern, and the teacher spoke loudly and firmly, "Only one person in the class passed, and that was with an A. The rest of you failed the test."

The words pierced Fran's heart like a sharp sword. At that moment, all the emotions he had skillfully controlled until then burst out of him like a flood. He covered his eyes with his forearm and lowered his head to the desk so that others would not see his sadness. Especially Vlado, who had already been smiling on the side and enjoying Fran's misery. While Fran quietly sobbed, Mateo tried to comfort him with a quiet and gentle voice, "Come on, you haven't even seen the test yet, and you're already upset."
"What is there to see? It doesn't matter if it's 10% or 40%, I failed. You heard the teacher, only one person got an A. And that's definitely not me." Fran briefly lifted his head and replied, then pushed it back into his forearm and continued to cry softly.

"Fran, come get your test." The teacher's voice was heard then.
