Unforgettable pages from my life

Its high time present 12th standard students are to get their board exam results. This brings the Krack-Jack (sweet & sour) memories back.

It was sweet little adolescent age when it is really very hard to digest any sort of failure. I was a kind of nerd, with the ambition of getting into a top ranking college. It is obvious for a person like me to get dejected when the exam result comes out in an unexpected manner. I remember it well. It was when I got my entrance exam results. I scored low in mathematics :( The next scene is simple as you guess. Tears flooded and poured out of my eyes. How people around me reacted then? Of course, they tried consoling me saying "Your score is not that bad. So don't worry". They totally failed in ceasing the stream of tear flowing down my eyes. I was continuously crying for hours like sweepy in popeye show. Then in the next scene, there came my dragon warrior to rescue me from this havoc. He just criticized and cornered me by saying "Your score is not up to the mark". He also added that he scored more than me. What he did was not the real heal for my wound. Then how it was possible for him to heal my pain, break down my sorrows into bits? It is the real magic of cognitive therapy. My dragon warrior is my BIG bro. He is the one who can easily fit in any kind of facial expression into my face.

Any Guesses why "BIG" is alone in caps? ;)
