A shorter version of 'Shoe'Napped

Many of my friends commented on the story 'Shoe'Napped saying that it was too dragging, lengthy, etc.

Here is the shorter version for them.

On my way back from office, I lost my shoes in the bus in which I traveled back home. Soon as i realized that after getting down from the bus, I made a decision to go in search of the shoes to the bus terminus, without realizing the fact that I had to travel across 2 continents to reach there. And finally, the shoes were not there inside the bus. I got back home late.
