A sentence I'm trying to write.

Context: A child tells on his younger brother to their mom. The next moment, the younger brother says to his older brother, That is/was not very kind of you.

I'm not sure which tense to use here.

If you want to use a colloquial word you might say the one child tattled on the other.
