阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Lorena parted the curtain in her living room and looked out onto the wet street. She was relieved the sunlight appeared. If it didn’t stop raining it would ruin her day. Her mother had promised to drive her to Fashion Fair if it were sunny. Lorena was desperate to go there because she had to replace a Nike jacket.
Earlier that Wednesday afternoon, Eddie, the most popular seventh-grader, had given Lorena his jacket and asked her to keep an eye as he would play basketball in a hurry. Lorena was quite happy to be of help.
During her last class, the biology teacher made them cut apart dead frogs. For fear of getting blood on Eddie’s jacket, Lorena folded it and placed it on a chair. Then she took the knife and cut the skin quickly. She felt sick opening the frog’s belly.
When the bell rang Lorena hurried out because the bus she caught for home left ten minutes after school. She raced to board the bus and found a seat. After a few minutes the driver started the engine and drove away when Lorena looked out of the window and saw Eddie. “The jacket!” she screamed. She shot from her seat and ran up to the driver. “You’ve got to stop! I forgot Eddie’s jacket!” “Who’s Eddie? I don’t know no Eddie,” the driver said crossly. “Sit down.”
All that evening she was upset and blamed her biology teacher for her problem. If he hadn’t made them dissect(解剖)frogs, she wouldn’t have been so absent-minded. The next day Lorena rushed from the bus to the biology room. The jacket was not there!
“How can I ever tell Eddie?” she closed her eyes. She spent most of her break and lunch period in the rest room, brushing her hair and worrying. On Friday she stayed home to avoid Eddie. She told her mother she wanted to go shopping to buy her a gift for her birthday, which was the next week. Actually, she wanted to buy a Nike jacket with her life savings at Fashion Fair.

(A)
Mom drove Lorena to Fashion Fair and left, asking her not to waste money. Lorena promised and ran in. Stopping at a rack of Nike jackets, she wondered what size Eddie wore. She tried one on and found the sleeves coming down over her hands. She felt it must be the size. She walked to the cash register and paid the money. She was overjoyed to have settled the problem. Then she headed for the perfume department to buy a gift for Mom. It was too bad she didn’t have enough money!
Paragraph 2:
Lorena was about to leave when she saw Eddie in his Nike jacket. With a tight face, Eddie scolded Lorena why she had left his jacket in the biology room. “I thought we could be friends,” he complained. “I can explain,” Lorena begged. “You’re of no help at all!” Eddie rushed off. “What the hell’s going on?” Lorena wondered. Realizing some people could never be friends, she wiped her eyes, returned the jacket, bought Mom some cheese instead of the romantic perfume and went home.
