AT INTERVIEW FOR A JOB

On my way I (saw) a man who (was painting) his fence with red paint.The man (didn't notice) me: he (was looking) at the fence.Then he (turned) suddenly and (splashed) my beautiful trousers! The man (apologised) to me, but the damage (had already been done).
''If I (go) home , I (will be late) for the interview". I (thought) There (is) a department store not far from the station , so I (decided) to buy a new pair.
I (found) a nice pair of trousers and since I (was) in a hurry, I (decided) to change on the train. The stop (was) full , so I (paid) hurriedly for my trousers, (took) my shopping bag and (left) .
I (arrived) at the station just in time to catch the train. Now I (was sure) that I (wouldn't be late) for the interview. I (smiled) happily at an elderly lady who (was staring) at my trousers and (went) to the toilet to change. I (threw) my stained trousers out of the window. Then I (opened) the bag to get my new ones , but all I (found) was a pink woollen sweater!
