The sound of glass breaking is instantly recognizable. I’d been telling my best friend Missi a silly story and had spun around in the living room when I heard that sound and froze.
When I looked down at the carpet, it was covered with pieces of sparkling red, pink and clear glass. Missi said. “Oh, no, the vase.”
“Why? What did I do?” My face reddened.
“Abby, that glass vase was one of the few items my relatives brought when they came to America,” Missi replied nervously. “If you’d broken anything else in the apartment, I would’ve gladly said I did it. But you’re going to have to tell my mom that it was your fault, and she’s going to be really mad.”
I was terrified. I’d destroyed a priceless family heirloom (传家宝). Why did I have to spin around like that?
We gathered up the shattered pieces. I kept saying that maybe it could be fixed, but Missi said gently it didn’t look possible. I insisted we keep the pieces. The glass was so fragile, like a colorful, swirly light bulb had exploded. Some of it broke even more as we tried to sweep it up carefully.
Missi said her mom would be home by six. My stomach was in knots. Would her mom yell at me or punish me? Would she tell me I couldn’t stay in their apartment for the weekend? I couldn’t stop playing the fifteen seconds over in my mind, me spinning fast and the sound of glass crashing. The only thing I could think of to say was “I’m sorry”.

A couple of minutes after six we heard a key turn in the door. Her mom was home. Right from the start, we could see she was in a good mood. “Hello! It’s hot today. I want to treat you girls to that frozen yogurt. I know you like. Let’s go!” her mom said. She pointed at the open door.

参考范文
Paragraph 1:
“Before that, I need to tell you something,” I said. “We can talk at the yogurt place,” her mom smiled. “No. I need to tell you now. It’s important,” I insisted. I could feel my voice shaking and tried not to cry. “What is it, dear?” she gently asked, closing the door and walking closer to me. Our hands almost touched. With her eyes studying me, my heart beat faster. “I’m sorry,” I blurted out. “I ... I was talking and laughing with Missi when I spun around and accidentally broke the vase.” I further explained that we saved the pieces but tried in vain to fix it. It still looked like small pieces of glass.
Paragraph 2:
Hearing my apology, Missi’s mother erupted into a loud scream of joy. She embraced me, kissing me on both cheeks. “Oh, thank you! I always hated that ugly vase. Now it’s gone! You’ve done me a huge favor!” her mom exclaimed with delight. Although relieved to have apologized, I was still in shock, for this was not at all the reaction I had expected. It wasn’t until I reached my adult years that I recognized what a profound gift her mother’s generosity in welcoming my apology was. Now, when I receive a genuine apology, I always consider the people’s feelings and make sure my response shows them their apology was fully heard and truly appreciated.
