You  Can't  Be  Serious


꘎♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡꘎


What is this nerve-wracking feeling?



I chewed my inner cheek, my fingers fidgeting with one another as I sat straight in my seat. The teacher came in and told everyone to put their study materials away.



The exam is about to start.



"Good luck, Lyra." Jungkook who sat behind me said.



"Y-you too," I replied. Jungkook will do well in the exam, he's a genius that doesn't need to study.



I studied. I studied my ass off yesterday. The only thing concerning me right now is Narcolepsy. The exam will last for nearly two hours and I'm not positive that I can stay awake for these two freaking long hours.



The teacher distributed the papers and we passed them down the row. I felt my stomach churning as I stared at the freshly printed white paper on my desk.



"You may check the papers and write your name now." The supervisor announced. The sound of clicking pens filled the silent classroom all of a sudden. I swallowed thickly before taking my pen and shakily write down my name.



You won't fall asleep so quit panicking. I told myself a million times in my head, yet, the nerve-wracking feeling only grew more intense.



"You may start now." The teacher said, bringing me back to reality. While I was panicking, everyone already started to read through the passages. I hurriedly flipped through my papers and inhaled deeply, then focusing on the words, filling the blank spaces.



Maybe a good 75 minutes passed. I finished over half of the paper. By far I think I'll get a good mark, the questions aren't that hard, pretty straightforward and the passage is easy to comprehend.



My eyelids lowered for a second.



Wait, no. Shit.



I began to breathe heavily as the sleepiness started to kick in. I rolled my eyes in a circle to keep myself awake. I let out a shaky breath then tried to focus on the paper again.



Of course, I miserably failed.



No, no.



I pinched my flesh, trying to stay alert but I kept blinking, my eyelids are so heavy and I felt like giving up. I wanted to cry. My body limped forward and I dropped my head to the arms.
