PLOT or STORYLINE

Plot is a narrative (and, traditionally, literary) term defined as the events that make up a story, particularly: as they relate to one another in a pattern or in a sequence; as they relate to each other through cause and effect; how the reader views the story; or simply by coincidence.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(narrative) A plot is a series of events and character actions

that relate to the main conflict. Due to the heavy rain, mayor Erap Estrada decided

to suspend our class. Me and my friend decided to go home. We are excited to have a good time with our family.
