In your daily activities when something is your fault, does saying sorry solve it?

Sorry might be a big words that we say when we are at fault but it doesn't solves most of the situations we finds ourselves into, if I am the cause of a particular daily activities that goes wrong, even if I said, I am sorry the bad feelings doesn't seems to go away so easily.

Once I was at home, and my mother has told me that the television on the parlour needs repair, that it began to malfunction just last night, and by the time this television began to show up a bad impression, I was outside the house, checking on what is going, on the social media.

So the next day, mother was preparing to go out and she saw me coming inside the parlour, she knew I came for nothing than the Tv-show that I follow up everyday 7:30 AM, so she informed me about how the television displays last night, that she thinks the television needs repair before we can used it again.

I heard her so well and I leave the parlour immediately, but after mother has went out, I couldn't remember when I go to the parlour again and switched on the television, I could tell from how I felt that all my instincts was on what's happening on the Tv-how, because I have followed up the show for days and it was that very day the show was going to end.

Mother had said that, it wouldn't be so nice if I switch the television on, so that to avoid more damage, because when she is back, she was going to take it to the people that can repair it, yet after she left, I didn't think about any of those things she tells me anymore.

I went ahead and switched it on, and It was showing just fine and then I catch up the show but just few minutes after, I began to perceived a bad smell that seems like a fuss is burning in the house, that was the time I recalled that mother said something about the television that I should not used it, untill she comes back and take it to where it going to be repair.

I noticed that I have just landed myself in a big trouble with mother and the thing about my mom is, she likes to talk so much and I didn't want to make her feel bad again, adding with how I have been doing in the past, I wanted a change in how she sees me, but I noticed that I was not any change.

I know the television didn't develop the fault the time I was using it, because it already had the fault before then and which was what mother was trying to make me understand, but I forget about what she said so early and go ahead and used it to watch the television show.

From that time I knew what I have done is wrong, I began to feel uncomfortable because I didn't want my mother to come back and start talking about me not listening to her, I called my friend and tell him to lend me some money, luckily my friend have some spare cash and he lend me.

I took the television to where it can get repair and when mother came back home, she didn't sees me at home, she calls me on phone and I let her know that I took the television to where it will be repair and by this time, I didn't tell her that I switched on the television when she was not around, and when I came back, I have to tell her everything that happened, but she was just looking at me without uttering a word.

What I do not know is if she is still not happy with me, even when I have told her that I am sorry, and the television is repaired, I am still bothered because within me, I am feeling not happy, the wrong I have done seems so hard to be forgotten.
