When Charlie was playing with the football in the garden, he saw the neighbour's cat walking along the top of the wooden fence that divided his garden from the neighbour's.<br />Charlie didn't like that cat, so he threw his football at it, but the cat jumped out of the way. The ball flew past the cat, then he heard a loud sound.<br />Charlie went towards the fence and looked through it. He saw his football lying by the wall of his neighbour's house and a big flower pot broken on one side.<br />Charlie didn't want his mum to find out what he'd done, so he opened the fence door and walked inside. He picked up his football and put the broken pieces into his pocket.<br />He tried hard to turn the flower pot around to hide the broken side. Then he closed the fence door and left.<br />When Charlie was looking for a place to hide the broken pieces, his mother went towards him and asked where he had been.<br />Charlie wanted to lie to his mother, but he realised that would be another bad thing.<br />No, that would be really bad, he decided.<br />Mum, he asked, will you still love me if I tell you the bad things I've done? His mother smiled and said, of course, son. Charlie pulled a hand out of his pocket full of broken pieces.<br />Mum could see those broken pieces, but that was OK, this would be good.<br />Please listen again.<br />Charlie didn't want his mum to find out what he'd done, so he opened the fence door and walked inside.<br />Charlie didn't want his mum to find out what he'd done, so he opened the fence door and walked inside.<br />He picked up his football and put the broken pieces into his pocket.<br />He tried hard to turn the flower pot around to hide the broken side.<br />Then he closed the fence door and left.<br />When Charlie was looking for a place to hide the broken pieces, his mother went towards him.<br />When Charlie was looking for a place to hide the broken pieces, his mother went towards him and asked where he had been.<br />Charlie wanted to lie to his mother, but he realised that would be another bad thing.<br />No, that would be really bad, he decided.<br />Mum, he asked, will you still love me if I tell you the bad things I've done?<br />His mother smiled and said, of course, son.<br />Charlie pulled a hand out of his pocket full of broken pieces.<br />Mum could see those broken pieces, but that was OK.<br />This would be good.
