Drama

Gloria is ready for the presentation. It's the first time that she gets to pitch a project of her own and had been rehearsing all week.
In a few minutes a message will tell her to connect to the link they send and she will deploy everything she's been working on.
But five minutes before the moment, she realizes the internet connection is down.

"No! No no no no no!" No internet connection. "You've gotta be kidding! I rehearsed all week for this! I can't give up now!" No bars.

Gloria had prepared the presentation carefully, compiling the information, noting the sources, using references, including the bibliography. Emphasizing the hassle of sorting the bibliography for the project.

The online courses were starting to take a toll on her. She only had three minutes left to send the presentation to the professor and make a live video presentation as well.

"Isaías!"

"¿Qué? (What?)" He asked.
"¡Se fué la señal! (The signal is gone!)" Gloria hollered.
"¿¡De nuevo!? (Again!?)" Isaías hollered back.
"Si. (Yes.)"
"¡Mierda! (Shit!)" Isaías had to leave whatever he was doing to fix the problem, since he was the tech nerd of the house.

Gloria had two minutes to get the internet back, but she didn't know how long it was going to take.

"Voy a chequear si la vecina tiene internet. (I'm gonna check if the neighbor has internet.)" Gloria stood from her chair.

"Ya casi termino. (I'm almost done.)" Isaías told her as he recalibrated the router, then he checked the signal bars on the laptop. "Todo arreglado. (All fixed.)"

"Gracias. (Thanks.)" Gloria sat on her chair again and logged into the school's website and typed the password. With a press of a key, she entered to activate the video camera to give the presentation. The whole class were connected via video chat.

The students that were connected took turns to show their presentation: a small window appeared to show the student's face while the presentation was on the professor's computer screen.

To summarize, Gloria was the last student to show her presentation. The professor examined the content of her presentation, from the paragraphs, grammar, sources, articles, references, dates, and paid close attention to the bibliography. He squinted to make sure she cited the pages and links correctly.

After a month her grades revealed that she passed the class.
