Window shattered

息子が友達の家に遊びにいって、家の中で柔道モドキ(息子は柔道、相手はテコンド)をして戦っていたら、キックされそうになってよけたところ、腰骨が窓ガラスにあたってバリリ。。。窓はこんなになちゃった。相手はその家の子ではなく、つまり部外者ふたりの連帯責任といったところでしょうか。ちなみに怪我はなし。「相手が払わないといったら、うちが全額払う」とパパが言ったのを聞いて、「全部払うのぉ」などと不服そうな息子だったが、怒りもしないで責任だけとってくれるパパを頼もしく思ったに違いない。

Our son went to his friend's after school today. They were wresting in a friendly manner inside (he plays Judo, and the opponent plays Tae Kwon Do). The opponent tried to kick him, and he tried to evade it and ran into a window by the hip. The window was literally shattered. He came home in a defensive mode expecting he might get scolded, but his dad just said he will pay for getting it replaced. I guess he leaned the lesson even though his parents did not say much.
