Just last week I held my sister doing her own work, her mat on work. She doesn’t like mats, but she trusts me and so she asked me to explain her some exercises that she didn’t get at school. And so I had for like two hours and at the end of the day she gave me an ice cream as a present. And so afterwards I was satisfied because I knew I had a good behavior with her, even if she’s my sister so sometimes it’s right to help her. But I’m satisfied in particular because then she understood the assignment and the day after at school she had a good impression on her teacher. So I will not help her anymore because she’s a very high-height, maintenance person and she complains a lot. But it was a good time after all I can say and if she’s asking me again maybe I will suggest to ask to someone else that the ice cream was good and my mother also thanked me for my act, my jail’s act.

Just last week I helped my sister with her homework. She doesn't like math, but she trusts me, so she asked me to explain some exercises that she didn't understand at school. I helped her for about two hours, and at the end of the day, she gave me an ice cream as a present. I felt satisfied because I knew I had behaved well with her. Even though she's my sister, sometimes it's important to help her. I'm particularly satisfied because she understood the assignment, and the next day at school, she made a good impression on her teacher. I might not help her again because she can be high-maintenance and complains a lot. But it was a good time overall, and if she asks me again, I might suggest she ask someone else. The ice cream was good, and my mother also thanked me for my kind act.
