i turned a blind eye
I saw the whole thing but I didn’t want to be the one to start the trouble.
I saw my friend took my pencil but I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want to start a fight.
I saw my brother made fun of my friend but I just stayed quiet because I didn’t want to get in the middle.
I saw my teacher was eating the class snack but I stayed quiet because I didn’t want to get in trouble.
