Studies.

Rishabh Iyer was studying as he had an exam the next day. Right next to his books, was a bowl of watermelon. And this was not just any watermelon. It was the reddest, biggest, and juiciest watermelon anyone would ever come across. Rishabh Iyer took a bite of it, while his eyes scanned his textbook. The seed (the biggest seed you’d ever see) which was in the piece Rishabh Iyer had swallowed, lodged itself between his front two teeth. Rishabh Iyer, using the dexterity of his tongue, flicked it out and spat it onto the floor. As he went back to his books, the seed on the floor, now covered in his spittle, enlarged and folded over itself. Tiny leaves began sprouting out and within a few minutes, a fully grown tree had found a place in Rishabh Iyer’s home. Rishabh Iyer, astonished, felt its bark to clarify its existence and was taken aback when a splinter lodged into his finger-tip. 

Excited, Rishabh Iyer spent the rest of the day playing on its branches, clicking pictures, and telling the world of this phenomenon.

He knew nothing in his question paper the next day. He failed.
