"Oh no..."
Willow stared at the hole in the window with dread.
"We messed up..." Fletcher trembled.
"Hey! Who did this!?"
"Run!"
Fletcher just ran to get away, but Willow ran straight to the truck she lived at with her parents.
"DAD!"
"Huh?" WALL-E spun around until his eyes found her, "What's wrong!?"
"We messed up! We messed up big time!" Willow choked out, "I don't know what to do!"
"What happened!?"
"Me and Fletcher were playing and, and he threw the ball too high and it broke a window!"
"Oh..." WALL-E sighed, "I thought something terrible had happened."
"It is terrible!" Willow sobbed, "It's vandalism! That's illegal!"
"Wil, it was an accident." he explained, "Let's go back and explain. Maybe we can fix the window for them."
"Is that how that works?"
"Yeah. Come on." WALL-E led her back into town, the broken window clearly visible. A policeman had been alerted and the owner of the window was shouting something.
Willow shrunk back in fear.
"It's okay, Wil." WALL-E pulled her along, "It'll be fine."
She doubted that.
"Hm? Oh, hey Wall-E." the man said, "Do you have an explanation for my broken window?"
WALL-E looked back at his daughter, gesturing forward.
"Um..." Willow tapped her fingers together, a habit she'd picked up from her parents, "Me and my friend broke your window...I'm sorry..."
"Oh." his anger immediately dropped, "It's so thoughtful of you to come back and apologize."
Willow looked up, surprised, "Really?"
"We can help fix the window if you like." WALL-E offered.
"Oh no, it's fine. I can fix it myself no problem." he said, "By the way, I don't think we've met?"
"Oh, this is my daughter, Willow."
"Nice to meet you, Willow. You know, your old man is really something."
"I know."
They bid him goodbye and the police left. The window was replaced that same day. As they were walking home, a thought occurred to Willow;
"I wonder where Fletcher went off to."
"He's probably going to get in trouble for not coming clean."
Willow giggled.
