Two nights ago, Jane went to bed very late so she didn’t hear her alarm the next

morning.

As she had woken up late, she didn’t have enough time to shower or eat breakfast.

She was in a rush, so she didn’t realize she had forgotten her keys by the door.

She was running for the bus, when she tripped and fell. As a result, her clothes got covered
in mud and she missed the bus.

Because she had to wait for another 20 minutes for the bus, she arrived very late at work,
looking tired and dirty. Her lateness made her boss very angry and he fired her.

When she got home, sad and hungry, she realized she was locked out of her own home, so
she had to call the fireman. Jane had a terrible day that day. Poor Jane.
