Tenses in a conversation
Hi. Would you please check if the tenses are correct for this ? Could you especially check the underlined verb?
A: Why aren't you here?
B: I am sorry. I was going to call you but my car didn't start. I was up early to probably be there well before the starting time but I couldn't due to the car trouble. But here is good news. The car is now fixed and I am on my way. I think it will take about fifteen minutes to go there assuming there is nothing on my way to prevent me from going smoothly. Anyway, the repairman finished fixing my car about five minutes ago and it took for him about five minutes fix it too. I will see you soon. Again, I am sorry for the delay.
