To double back = go back in the direction one has come.

To retrace one's footsteps or retrace your steps = to go back to a place in the same way that you came:
"She walked straight past her office and then had to retrace her steps to pick up her handbag."
Overlooked = this word is sometimes used a s euphemism for 'forgot.'

Because of the rain, I went back home to get my umbrella.
Sorry for being late. I went home to take umbrella because of the rain.
I recommend using the second sentence because it's better to apologize first and then explain the situation which caused you coming late, although, both of the sentences have the same meaning.
