There is approximately 200 billion— no, trillion stars in the universe.
What significants was there if a single star were to cease?
No one would ever seem to notice if a supernova were to happen because of a star dying.

Summary
"Layla," The professor began, their voice stern and authoritative. "Your latest assignment was... surprising, to say the least." She took off her glasses and sighed, “Do you have any reasons why?”
“I’m sorry I’ll try harder next time professor..”
The Professor's expression softened slightly, but only slightly. "I certainly hope so, Layla. Your potential and intelligence are evident, but your recent work has been lackluster. I had higher expectations for you."
"I understand, Professor," she replied, her voice low and penitent. "I’ll get better grades next assignment."
The professor studied her for a moment, their eyes narrowing. "I hope so, Layla. You have talent and potential. It would be a shame to see it go to waste."
The professor gestured to the door. "You can go now. And remember, I expect to see marked improvement in your next assignment."
Layla will just have to spend a ‘bit’ more time in the library more than usual! (It will bring some side effects.)
