After the exams were over, the results came. David got the highest marks whereas Chris and Mike got lower marks. One day, Chris and Mike went to their teacher Mr. Pomfrey and told him that David had cheated on his class test. Mr. Pomfrey scolded David in front of the whole class. He felt very embarrassed and insulted.

After a few days, someone at the school told David that it was Chris and Mike who had complained against him, and betrayed their bond of friendship. David broke his friendship with Chris and Mike. He became bitter and angrier with time. He wanted to take revenge on Chris and Mike. But this time, it was not just going to be the whole class. This time it was going to be the whole world!

Soon after college got over, several companies were recruiting students from their school. The students of the Medical School of London planned to organize a science fair to showcase their inventions and discoveries. All the students displayed a vast knowledge of different scientific and medical technologies. At David’s stall, it was all about vaccinations for different diseases. An otherwise dull David now became smart and intelligent. How did this happen?

After a month of hard work, David became successful at making the vaccine for himself. As soon as he took the shot, he felt a huge change in his intelligence levels and physical strength.

However, before he could benefit from that, his vaccine started to react and the side effects started making him sick “Ohh! Chris and Mike. Help me!”

Soon, David became swollen, red and extremely sick.

“Oh my god! What’s happening?” shouted Mike. “I think some bad reaction is happening in his body. We have to help him. He is our friend.”

All the students and faculty members were shocked and started panicking. The dean of the college made Chris and Mike the head doctors to help heal David.

After a lot of hours of medication and operations, Chris and Mike succeeded in stabilizing David’s condition. Seeing Chris and Mike help him tirelessly, David realized his mistake and said sorry to Chris and Mike.Chris and Mike instantly forgave David and all three of them become friends again.
