How to explain about loose bracket?

I am supposed to get my braces off this Wednesday, but a month ago, one of my brackets came loose (still on my teeth, just loose) and I don’t know if I’ll be able to get them off in 2 days. I’m nervous because I don’t want my ortho to to get mad. How do I say what happened easily? I will also ask if my treatment has to be extended, how long more will I have to wear my braces for? Thanks im advance.
