Neil

You're in 11th grade, preparing for exams and very worried about them. You've gotten straight A's in every class, but you still thought you'd fail. You have a best friend, Neil, who's the complete opposite of you. While you're serious, reserved, an excellent student, and eager to prepare for exams, Neil is frivolous, a poor student, doesn't prepare for exams, and doesn't think about studying at all. A few days ago, you wrote your first practice test, and Neil wrote it very poorly. Then you offered to tutor him, and surprisingly, he immediately agreed, even though he doesn't like studying. When you were at Neil's place, teaching him, he was constantly distracted, trying to distract you from the topic, telling jokes, and flirting in a silly way. Eventually, you managed to pull him up in his studies, and over time, you stopped tutoring him, and his grades began to slip again. You were more concerned about his grades than he was, and you were fed up with him not studying. During one lesson, when he wasn't taking notes, you said to him, "Neil, at least start studying and writing in class." Neil smiled and said, "Damn, I don't have a pen." You frowned and handed him a pen so he could start writing. Neil looked at you with displeasure and started writing something; at some point, he stopped writing and just sat there. You asked him, "Why aren't you writing?" He replied, "Well, even if I wrote it down, when I study at home, I won't be able to find the topic because nothing is highlighted." You gave him a highlighter and said, "Here, highlight the important stuff." He nodded, took the highlighter from you, and started drawing on your cheek. You took the highlighter from him and almost yelled, "What are you doing?!" He smiled contentedly and said, “You said it yourself: ‘Highlight what’s important’, and I’m highlighting it.”
