My Mom had asked me to do so because she had a meeting late then. I played soccer with some boys in the neighbourhood so enthusiastically that I forgot to get my brother home. When I got home, my parents were very irritated because they had been so worried about my brother and me that my dad had to go to kindergarten. When he reached there, the boy was crying and his teacher was very nervous. My parents scolded and nagged me about my irresponsibility. I was punished by not going out on weekends for 2 weeks. I knew I was wrong. I apologized to my parents for my error and promised not to commit it again. Well, everyone makes mistakes in some way, but the thing is to realize them and avoid making them again.
