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!
