Sabrina found herself taken aback, her eyes traveling up and down the womans figure before she posed the question, Are you his parent?
With a touch of urgency, she continued, Your timely appearance is rather fortunate. It seems your child has inadvertently sent mine tumbling from the slide. Might I kindly request an apology?
In response, the woman shot Sabrina a skeptical glance and retorted.
Why should I take your word for it? There are so many children here.
Sabrina didnt miss a beat and firmly stated, Hes already admitted.
The woman turned to her son, a condescending air in her voice as she remarked, Well, hes just a child. He might be saying it out of fear.
Sabrina, undeterred, suggested, If you doubt my word, we can head to the monitoring room and check the surveillance video.
The woman responded with exasperation, Youre being unreasonable.
Even if my child did bump into yours, it was unintentional. Besides, your daughter seems fine. Are you trying to blackmail me? The woman concluded her argument, leaving Sabrina perplexed.
While the boy was decked out in designer clothing, Sabrina and Jennie were no less well-dressed. The womans comments seemed unfounded.
Irrespective of their social backgrounds, Sabrina believed that common decency should guide ones actions, especially when it came to acknowledging unintended harm caused to others.
Sabrina realized that reasoning with this woman was a futile endeavor, and there was no hope for resolution in sight.
Swiftly, she retrieved her phone and placed a call to the authorities.

They were pillars of rural integrity, steadfast believers in the notion that there was no need to complicate matters. Whenever Sabrina encountered adversity at school, her grandparents, in their wisdom, encouraged her to endure in silence.
In those moments, she had yearned for someone to champion her cause.
Sabrina had never harbored any resentment toward her grandparents, recognizing their limitations in knowledge and fortitude. Yet, she was resolute in her determination not to let Jennie undergo the same tribulations and bear unjust burdens.
Observing Sabrina on the phone, the woman sneered, her voice laced with derision.
Whats the matter? Are you seeking assistance?
Once the call was connected, Sabrinas tone grew steely as she inquired, Hello, is this the police station?
Unperturbed, the woman countered, Oh, youve summoned the police. Do you imagine Im quaking in my boots?
After elucidating the situation to the police, Sabrina terminated the call with a firm declaration.
Since your resolve remains unwavering, I suggest you stay put and await the arrival of the authorities.
Fine!
