My hands are shaking.


My sweat is dripping down onmy forehead.


You can do it! You're reviewing, aren't you!


I was convincing myself earlier, earlier I was rubbing my fingers with my hands. I'm still nervous. I should not be.




I should not be fail

I should not be a failure




My eyes roll inside our classroom as I wait for our professor to enter. This is the last exam that I will take. I should be better.


I remember what my dad told me last night. "You should be better than anyone grace, our family is in a medical field, don't disappoint me,"


"You should be better than your brother because you're a girl," are the words that stick in my mind now. Shaking my hands I looked at my reviewer.


And I looked again at the questions and answers. My older brother Wonwoo gave it to me, even though we're not close. I still had the courage to ask him for help.


Because I have to pass.


I stopped reading when I caught sight of our professor who had already entered the room. I immediately hid my reviewer in my pocket and faced him.


"Okay, are you class ready? This is the last exam and you can graduate, our future nurses and doctors, you can do that!" they all shouted.


Especially in the back where only men are sitting. They're the bullies. I have no friends in the classroom and no one wants to be friends with me.


Because all I did in my whole life was study hard. Our teacher gave us five minutes to review. So I took my paper again but snatched it from my hand.


"Why, there's a code," I looked up at Jeonghan. He bit his lollipop in his mouth and crumpled my paper.


"Why do you have it?" he asked me and he even called his friends. They were around my seat and the other one even kicked my bag.


"I-I did that,"


"You did that?" he asked me again. I saw how he tore my reviewer in front of me.


"W-What did you do!" I knelt on the floor and picked up one by one the paper that had been scattered because of what he had done. I haven't read the other question yet.


"We're fair here, if the others don't have a reviewer, you shouldn't either," They laughed at me and they left next to my seat.


I picked up those papers one by one and tried to compile them so that I could review them. But .. "No more,"


"Okay! Stop reviewing, I'll give you the test paper," our teacher walked over to give us the test papers one by one.


I saw the questions.


They didn't match my review before. I closed my eyes emphatically. I calmed myself first before I touched my pencil.


"Y-You should pass this exam grace, y-you can do it," I touched and stroked my chest to get rid of my nervousness in my body.


After an hour and a half our exam ended and we had to wait another 30 minutes for the result to come out. The parents of other students were waiting outside.


I can't expect them to come here anymore. They're so busy in the hospital. Sometimes I'm just alone at home.


I can hear them laughing Jeonghan in the back. And one of his friends kicked the back of my chair.


Our professor entered the classroom again with the result. So I sat up again and looked at him.


"So, all of your scores are good, but one of you is really exceptional, she mastered the exam!" everyone sighed.


Don't expect grace, it's not you.


"Grace Jeon, you're the highest,"


"Y-Yes?"


"You're Highest, Grace, Congratulations!" my eyes shone with joy. But suddenly the men in the back laughed.


I saw Jeonghan raise his arms while his eyes looked at me.


What is he trying to do?


"Ma'am,"


"Yes, Jeonghan do you have something to say?" Everyone looked at the two of them.



"She cheated," My hands started to tremble again. What is he saying!


"Grace, Jeon, She cheated," he said emphatically in front of and throughout our class. He took a piece of paper out of his pocket and that's my reviewer!


"This!"


"This is her cheat code, Grace Jeon is a cheater," my classmates gasped and held their mouths in surprise. My teacher looked at me disappointed.


I did not cheat!
