Explanation:

When converting direct speech to reported speech, some simple steps can be very helpful:

- Use verbs such as "say", "tell", "ask", "inquire", "answer", "reply", "state", etc. to indicate the manner in which something was spoken.

- Change the pronouns according to the situation. For example, if it is a man speaking, the pronoun "I" can become "he".

- Change words that indicate time or location if necessary. For instance: here → there; today → that day; tomorrow → the next day; etc.

- Change the verb tenses to their respective pasts. For example: simple present → simple past; present perfect → past perfect; will → would.

An example:

- Mila said, "Why do you always call me when I'm busy? I'll talk to you tomorrow."

- Mila asked why he always called her when she was busy. Then she said she would call him the next day.
