Does this sound natural?

Sorry if the tittle is wrong, I didnt know what else to put.

A conversation between me and my teacher

"Teacher: Drop90, what happened? why did you miss last class?

Drop90: I missed because when I was leaving the appartment, one of the main pipings broke and the water started to leak out strongly. The stairs turned into a river and the appartments were filling up with the water. It took about 1 hour for the cleaning man to shut down the valve and for us another hour to clean up the mess."


Any unnatural phrase? mistake? something hard to listen?

Titles should include some relevant words from the parts of your post that you are unsure about. A good title for this would have been "Teacher: "Drop90, what happened?"
