When he was drunk, he complained to his friends “Does it matter if she has good grades？

A glass touched the table a little too hard. Then he laughed and said, "Does it matter if she has good grades?" Nobody answered right away. Later, that question kept returning in different ways. Did her grades matter? Did anything she worked for matter? The way she folded a receipt into perfect squares, the silence after dinner, something in her eyes—I didn't question it at first. His friends laughed once, then looked away. "Does it matter if she has good grades?" became the kind of sentence that stayed in the room long after everyone left. By morning, nothing looked damaged. Somehow, everything felt different. Maybe you've heard words that changed a room forever without anyone admitting they did.
