['When I was younger I was playing basketball and I accidentally hit my sister as she was walking by.', 'Oh no! Was she okay, or did she cry?', 'Yeah she was fine. I made sure to apologize several times after.']
That is good, I'm glad she was okay. I once got hit in the face with one, so I know it can sting.
I was playing basketball and I accidentally hit my sister in the head as she was walking by. It felt terrible and I apologized around 20 times.
