Male Female

A time when I did something I felt guilty about involving a family member was definitely when I broke my mom's vase last year. It was in the afternoon when I came back from school. I was feeling very energetic because I had gotten the highest score in my class on a test. Because of that, I accidentally broke my mom's favorite flower vase. I tried my best to gather all the pieces of glass from the vase, but it didn't work. When my mom found out, she was disappointed, but she wasn't angry with me. She told me in a calm way that I should be more careful next time. Even though my mom didn't criticize me for breaking her vase, I felt really guilty because it was a very expensive vase that she had saved up a lot of money to buy. So I hope that in the future, when I earn enough money, I can buy her a new one.
