Dear Jonathan,
It was a pity that we couldn't meet yesterday! I was thinking that my dance class finished at five o'clock, but I was wrong: it finished at half past six
When I got out of school it rained, and when I arrived at the bus stop the bus had just leave. I was furious.
I know I promised you we have dinner together, but when I finally arrived home I was too tired to go out.
I'm so sorry. Shall we meet tomorrow afternoon?
Love,
Sarah
