When Sarah returned home from work, she noticed a strange dripping sound. To her horror, water was leaking from her ceiling. She rushed upstairs to her neighbor, Tom, and knocked on the door. Tom opened, looking embarrassed. His washing machine hose had burst while he was out shopping. Together, they turned off the water, cleaned the mess, and called a plumber. Although Sarah was initially upset, Tom apologized and even offered to pay for the damage. By the end, they agreed it was a reminder to always check appliances before leaving home.
