"Yoongi, why can't you do better like your older brother Yoonsuk?"

"But mom, 80% is a good grade! My score is better than most of my classmates!" Yoongi explained.

"Yoonsuk can get a 90% with no effort. Why can't you do that?"

The boy frowned and hid his face by turning his head down. His body twists in fear and nervousness.

"Why do you keep comparing me with him..." he mumbled.

"What was that?" his mother asked in irritation.

"Nothing! I said nothing!" he panics.

"Why I ought to-! You should do better than this! You don't even have the right to complain right now! Go to your room!" his mom nagged.

He snatched his test paper from his mom's desk and ran to his room. He closed the door, locked it, and jumped on his bed.

He buried his face in his pillow and cried.

Why am I not enough to you?

Why do I need to be compared to someone I'm not?

I'm doing my best to hear your words as encouragements and not disappointments!

His thoughts flooded his mind as he ranted with his face buried in his pillow.

It was not long until his pillow got wet from tears and until he needed air to recover from his state.

"I don't understand why I have to feel like this when I can be taught in a better way." he said to his Kumamon stuffed toy.

He kept his test paper back in his bag and looked at the time.

"It's 8:35pm..."

He went to his room's bathroom and brushed his teeth.

He got back on his bed and saw his pillow slightly still wet with tears. He got anxious with remembering what happened earlier and quickly flipped the pillow so he can finally sleep.
