Your turn!

You received a story in the wrong order.

Please put the story in the correct order.

You have 5 minutes to do so!

Beginning

Tom and Lisa were very hungry, so they decided to go to a restaurant. They looked at the menu and talked about what they wanted to eat. After a few minutes, they ordered their food. Tom wanted a pepperoni pizza, and Lisa ordered a cheese pizza.

Middle

When the waiter arrived with their food, Tom looked at his plate and frowned. Something was wrong. His pizza had mushrooms instead of pepperoni! He didn’t like mushrooms at all.

Tom called the waiter and said, “Excuse me, but this is not what I ordered.” The waiter looked at the pizza and realized the mistake. “I’m so sorry! I will bring the right pizza,” he said and quickly walked back to the kitchen.

End

Finally, the waiter brought a new pizza, and this time it was correct. Tom took a big bite and smiled. “This is perfect!” he said.

In the end, Tom and Lisa enjoyed their meal and laughed about the mistake. “Next time, I will double-check my order,” Tom said, smiling.
