My dirty little secret

I looked at my test score and I wasn't happy not only was I not happy I couldn't understand how I got such a low score I got a D minus. That wasn't like me to get such a score like that there had to be something wrong. I just couldn't grasp the concept I had study two whole weeks for this test not counting the weekends.

"Nichole, I want you to stay after school today so we can go over your test," Mr. McCall said.

Before walking out of the class I turned around and looked at him and shook my head. Letting him know that I would be there today after school. It was only fifth hour I still had sixth and seventh hour to go before I went back to Mr. McCall room to figure out why I had did so badly on my ACT prep test. Once it was the end of the day I walked down the stairs to go to Mr. McCall room he was sitting there at his desk doing something on his compute, I just sat down quietly and waited until he was ready to tell me what I did wrong on the test. Once he was done he stood up abd and came closer to me and the table I was sitting at. He sat on the table next to me and just looked at me for a few minutes, then asked me.
"How are you doing?"
"I'm fine," I said.
"I know you are going through a lot right now with your mother passing away and if you every need someone to talk to you have me," He said.
" I'm fine really," I said.
" I know you were really close to your mother the way you would talk about her in class sometime sometime," He said.
"Yeah I was," I said.
"Can we please talk about my test?" I asked.
"Oh yeah your test you did quit well on your test best in the class to be honest," He said.
" Then why am I staying after?" I asked.
"Well because I wanted to talk about something bigger then the test," He said.
"Wait I got a D minis on the test I did bad," I said.
"No you got an A I just put that on your test so you would have to come in?" He said.
He stated walking over to his desk and wave me over there. I walked over to his desk
