1. Friends-1

" Jenna! Come check this out ! Quick !! "

" I'm coming !" Jenna shouted back at her friend as she ran to the school hall.

  There, on the wall, is a big notice board with exam grades pin to it. It was on the wall since an hour ago, everybody was crowding there an hour ago, so Jenna and her friend, Sue, didn't get a chance to see their grades.

" Did Sue got rank 1 ! WOW ! I thought Jenna would ..."  went the group of students passing by Sue who is standing in front of the notice board.

 " This year determine which college you will go to, I heard that only one student can get full scholarship to study in Harvard university. " went another.

" Yeah, the principal announced last month that only the one who get rank 1 will get the scholarship.. "

" Congrats!! Sue you got rank 1! " exclaimed Jenna.

" I can't believe this! yay! "

That evening

" Hey Jenna ! Wanna go home together?" asked Sue

" I'll go later, you go ahead. "

 After Sue left the school, Jenna walked back inside the school. She walked towards the school hall, as she came across the notice board, she stopped and stared at it intensely. Below Sue's name, there stood hers. Jenna gritted her teeth as she faced down looking at the floor. Her eyes started to tear up.

" It's fine right? It's my friend who passed after all." She told herself quietly.

After a few minutes of standing, Jenna wiped her tears and walked away. Her chauffeur was waiting for her near the school's gate, when Jenna saw the car waiting for her, she signaled the chauffeur to go. The chauffeur didn't understand, since he just got the job a week ago.

 She was annoyed and decided to text him instead.

" I'll walk home myself today, Thanks for picking me up " read the message she sent.

Jenna walked to a nearby park, the sun was about to set, it looked very beautiful. Jenna knew that she had lost her chance of entering her dream university with a full scholarship, this life opportunity is very important to her. She had been working hard for the past 4 years to enter her dream university, Jenna had wanted to live independently after graduation, so she made an agreement with her family 4 years ago that she will get a full scholarship to study in her dream university, and her parents only need to sent money to her every month for her apartment and food expenses.

She thought her life would go as she wanted, she thought it would go smoothly.

Ting !  A notification appeared on Jenna's phone.

" Jenna, when are you coming home ?" read a text from her housekeeper.

" I should get going, what an exhausting day.."

Everyone have at least a dream, but everyone was just a child back then, who knew nothing about what they had to face in reality, and of course it's failing. BUT failing once doesn't mean it's not possible to start over.
