The Boy Who Lost His Pencil

The boy did not really lose his pencil, but he made it appear as if he had. He was afraid of the exam and needed something he could blame. When he walked into the exam room, he had nothing to write with. When asked why he came without it, he said his mother was sharpening it and had not given it to him in the morning to sit the exam. Life is like that. Sometimes we just come to sit and do nothing in particular. Everyone else is surprised by the results, but we know exactly what happened.
