When the night fell, James, a middle school student, dragged（拖着）his tired body home. In order to save money to buy himself a new bike, he had been working for over a month. With one more week, he would have his dream bike.
Entering the room, James found his younger brother Adam sitting on his bed with tears in his eyes.
"Sorry. I did something wrong," Adam said in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" James asked.
"This afternoon I went to play football on the road and accidentally it hit our neighbor Mr. Black's car. I was so afraid that I hurried home without telling him," Adam said, full of regrets.
"Is the car seriously damaged?" James asked nervously.
"The tail light got broken," Adam said.
"It's truly your fault（错误）. 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 bad boy," James raised his voice. Hearing this, Adam lowered his head. James added, "Anyway, it's never too late to mend. Now it's time to sleep."
When A dam went to bed, James couldn't go to sleep himself. He was sorry for his brother's behavior. But he shouldn't have been so hard on his brother after he did something wrong. Anyway, Adam was only a seven-year-old boy and what had happened really scared him. "Nothing serious. I can pay for it with the money I saved for my new bike." he said to himself.
The next morning, James took his brother to Mr. Black's house. Mr. Black was a little surprised to see the brothers. James told Mr. Black what had happened and drew out the money from his pocket. "This is all the money I have. I wonder if it can make up for your loss," he said.
"Good boys, I truly admire（钦佩）your honesty. Just forget my car," Mr. Black said. He refused to take the money but accepted the brothers' offer of doing some work in his garden.
