To complete this conversation with the provided nouns, you need to think about what noun best fits each blank based on the context of the conversation. Here's a step-by-step explanation:

Missing the Bus : The issue begins with Yuv being late to school. The first reason given is that Yuv's mother forgot to set the 'alarm', so waking up was delayed.

Morning Incident : After waking up late, at 'breakfast', Yuv spilt his 'milk', necessitating a change of 'uniform'.

Arriving at Bus Stop : Yuv reached the bus stop just as the 'bus' left, indicating he was just a bit late.

Alternative Transport : Initially, Yuv and his mother got into 'the car', but it wouldn't start.

Final Means of Transport : Eventually, the decision was made to call a 'cab', which took time to arrive and resulted in Yuv being late to school.

The completed conversation fills in the blanks with relevant nouns: Yuv missed the bus due to his mother forgetting to set the alarm, causing him to spill milk at breakfast and change his uniform. He arrived at the bus stop late and, after his car wouldn't start, ended up waiting for a cab to take him to school. This chain of events explains why he is half an hour late to school.
