When the night fell, James, a middle school student in London, dragged his tired body home. In order to save money to buy himself a new bike, he had been working at a restaurant for over a month during the summer vacation. He had already earned some money. With one more week, he would have his dream bike.
Entering the room, James found his younger brother Adam sitting on the edge of his bed with an uneasy expression on his face. James stared at Adam confusedly.
"Sorry. I did something wrong, " Adam said, on the verge of tears.
"What's the matter with you?" James asked.
"This afternoon I went to play football on the road outside the house and accidentally hit our neighbor Mr. Black's car. I was so scared and I hurried home in panic without telling him, " Adam said, full of guilt.
"Is the car seriously damaged?" James couldn't wait to continue asking.
"The ball hit the car back and the tail light got broken, " Adam said in a low voice.
"It's truly your fault. It's really dangerous to play football on the road. What's worse, you shouldn't have come back without telling Mr. Black about it. You are such a naughty boy, " James raised his voice. Hearing this, Adam lowered his head and bit his lips hard. James added, "Anyway, it's never too late to mend. I'11 take you to his house tomorrow to apologize. Now it's time to sleep. "
When Adam went bed, James couldn't go to sleep himself. Father always told him to be honest, to be a boy admired by the people and to be an example of his brother. He was sorry for his brother's behavior. He shouldn't have blamed his brother after he did something wrong. But he could understand him. Anyway, Adam was only a boy of seven and what had happened really scared him. But as his elder brother, he should pay for it though this might delay his plan of having the bike. "Nothing serious. At worst, I can take more summer jobs, " he said to himself.
