A: There was heavy traffic on the freeway, and I couldn't call because my cell phone died. B: That's weird. There isn't usually any traffic at this time of day.

B: Hi, Kylie. What's wrong? A: I have to apologize. I wasn't able to finish my half of our class project last night. B: But it's due today. A: I know. I feel terrible about it. B: What happened?

B: Uh, I didn't have my cell phone with me. A: That's strange. You always carry your cell phone with you. 4. A: Where have you been? We've been waiting for you. The meeting was supposed to start half an hour ago. B: I know. I apologize. My car broke down, and I had to wait for a tow truck. A: Again? Didn't your car break down last week, too? B: Um, yeah, it did. It's a really old car. A: And the week before that, you were late because you were helping someone look for their lost cat. B: I'm sorry.
