Recount Text 5

        I only slept for three hours last night. At ten we heard a cry from Mrs. Wayan’s home. She is our next door neighbour. She’s 70 years old and very weak. She lives alone. We went there quickly, and we found her on the floor. She just fell. She could not move her hands and her legs. At 10.30, my parents and I took Mrs. Wayan to hospital. My father and I sat in the front seats. In the back seats, my mum was holding Mrs. Wayan.

         In the emergency room, a doctor examined her. Then he said Mrs. Wayan had to stay in the hospital. When she was already in the ward, we went home. It was 2 a.m. (Adapted from When English Rings the Bell: Students’ book, 2014, p. 191)
