John:Hey,Kate,why weren’t you at the school basketball competition yesterday?I called you so many times,but you didn’t answer.

Kate:Sorry,John.I left my phone at home.

John:What were you doing at the time of the competition?

Kate:Well,I left my house late and when the competition started,I was still making my way to school.

John:Then what happened?

Kate:When I got to the bus stop,I realized that my bag was still at home!

John:But why didn’t you just go home to get your bag?

Kate:I did,but while I was running back home,I saw a dog by the side of the road and it was hurt.

John:Oh,so I’m sure you helped the dog.I know how much you love animals.

Kate:Yes,I wanted to call the Animal Helpline,but I didn’t have my phone so I had to wait for someone to walk by.Then I used his phone to call the helpline.

John:OK.No wonder you didn’t make it to the competition.

Kate:Yes,I’m so sorry I wasn’t there to cheer you on,but I’m happy that your team won!
