On impulse I stole my father’s watch

    On impulse I stole my father’s watch. I was punished and learned my lesson. However, a few months later when my father found two thousand dollars missing from his wallet, I was the first one he questioned. No matter how I tried to defend myself, my father would not believe me. That was the most painful moment in my life. I realized that my father would never trust me again. Fortunately, my mother was there for me. She told me that this was the price I had to pay for having stolen my father’s watch. So I hung in there waiting for the truth to come out. Three weeks later, my father apologized to me, saying that he found the money in his offices drawer. I had finally regained my father’s trust.
