Male Female

In the given cue card, I'm asked to speak about a time, like a situation when I had to wait. Usually, I do everything on time. Last week, I was going to our hometown for some shopping for groceries. I went to the bus stop, and after waiting for two minutes, the bus arrived. I got on it, and then the bus started moving forward. Suddenly, the bus stopped because there was heavy traffic, and we could see that there had been an accident, a car and bike accident. Two people had died at that moment, and we had to wait. There was a lot of rush on the road, so we had to wait for about an hour and a half for the traffic to clear. I was too late to get into town because of the heavy traffic. All of this was distressing; people were bleeding, and it was a very unfortunate situation.
