Here is a story from my past using the simple past tense:Last year, I was working as a cashier at a local grocery store.

37. Once upon a time, there was a
tree.
The tree had a crow on one of
its branches.
38. There was also a fox…
A Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a
piece of cheese in
its beak and settle on a branch of a
tree.
39. "That's for me, as I am a Fox,"
said Master Reynard, and he
walked up to the foot of the
tree.
"Good-day, Mistress Crow,"
he cried. "How well you are
looking to-day:
how glossy your feathers;
how bright your eye.
40. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other
birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one
song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of
Birds."
The Crow lifted up her head and began
to caw her best, but the moment she opened her
mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground,
only to be snapped up by Master Fox.
41. "That will do," said he. "That was all I wanted. In
exchange for your cheese I will give you a piece of
advice for the future.
"Do not trust flatterers."
42. As the moral says:
"Do not trust flatterers."
Now, I would like you to write about an experience that had
happened to you in the past and explain where you had faced
this kind of situation.
