I peeled, chopped, fried, tasted and finally finished _______ (cook) just before eight o'clock, which is when she'd said she would be home. I sat down and congratulated myself on preparing such as delicious meal, thinking that my flatmate would be very happy.

I waited....and waited...and finally thought that it might be a good idea to call her and ask if everything was ok. I picked up my cell phone and saw 10 missed calls from her! I hadn't turned the sound back on after leaving work. I called her, hoping _______ (get) an answer. She picked up and explained that her flight was delayed and that she planned _______ (buy) another flight because hers wasn't going to leave for hours. I told her all about the delicious meal that was waiting for her here and promised _______ (do) it again when she was home.

We chatted for a while and she told me a little about her adventures but she needed
_______ (go) and check if she could get on another flight. Poor thing, all she wanted
_______ (do) was get home, unpack, have a shower, relax and have dinner, of course.
