Carlos is a medium-class guy studying in University. He is the guy that has 90’s and 100’s in his report card, but putting so much effort in his career make him forget to have some fun times with friends and relax from the University. So, Friday came and his friends call him and told that he must go to a nightclub, that he must forget a little about the school and have a good time with them. Carlos is undecided if to go or not, but at the end he agrees with the condition to return earlier because he has an exam on Saturday morning.

Carlos just agrees to go because of the pressure of his friends to go out with them. He used to go out at night a lot but now that he is in University, now he doesn’t have time for that and prefers studying, but today he is nervous about going out after at least three months. Carlos’ friends pick him up at about 21 o’clock, as they were getting closer to the nightclub, Carlos was feeling more and more nervous, he just thinks that it was a bad idea or that maybe it was a good one. Finally, they arrive to the place and the entrance was full of people, and at this point Carlos was shocked of how much people were in the entrance, his friends have to pull him to enter because he doesn´t knew what to do. Carlos was feeling uncomfortable in the place, he just wanted to go home and never go out again, until he sees a beautiful girl I front of their table, she is the type of girl Carlos likes, so Carlos, feeling shy and wanting to go home, decide to just try to say hello to her and make some conversation. When he arrives at the girl’s table, he started talking to her and for the surprise, the girl replies to him and start talking. An hour passed and you could see Carlos dancing with the girl, having a great time, feeling free and completely de-stressed from the school. Now was late, almost 3 o’clock in the morning and Carlos’ friends remembered that he told them to return earlier so they decided to leave the place with him, but the problem is that they couldn’t find him, they search everywhere and he wasn’t in the place. His friends thought that he already returned to his home so they just go to their respective houses.

In the morning, at exam, Carlos was present, ready for taking it, feeling tired but with the potential to do the exam. During the exam, Carlos try to concentrate on it, but he couldn’t get out of his head that night that he had and how good was it, but then he rethinks and try to focus again in the exam that he is being studying for days. There are only 9 minutes left for the exam and Carlos is just blocked from thinking, so he finally hands in the incomplete exam and get out of the classroom as fast as possible to call his friend. When his friend answer, Carlos tell him that he wants to go out today again, but his friend tells him that he has so study for some exams he has next week, Carlos just hang up and think what he had just done.
