今日はレッスンの途中で終わりました。

1. I have good news and bad news. is used when you want to deliver both positive and negative news to someone.

I have good news and bad news. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the job yesterday. But, I received a better offer from another company today!

2. You can use the phrase I don’t know how to say this, but… when you want to give someone bad news delicately.

I don’t know how to say this, but I think we should break up.

3. I’m afraid it’s out of my hands. is used to politely tell someone that you cannot control something.

I’m sorry, but there’s nothing more I can do about it. I’m afraid it’s out of my hands.
