If we want to express a causal relation, or that one event is the cause and the other its consequence, we need to use causal or consequential dependent clauses.

Leaving this sentence unchanged or revising it to the answer D, the reader might accnowledge these two events (raining and Monica's tardiness) as two independent, unrelated events.
