Aleef and I are in the same class. We often play badminton on the school badminton court. Aleef and I were mutual exchange of shots on the badminton court. After an hour, we decided to go for a drink at Mak Temah's stall. On seeing us, Mak Temah's greeted us warmly.
After our drink, we started to walk home. We had to cross a busy road near Mak Temah's stall.
I asked Aleef, " My father is coming to fetch me. How about you?
Aleef replied, " I'll take the bus home.
" We were standing at the roadside and were about to cross the busy road when we saw a boy come running down the road. As he not see me standing there, he knocked into me.
He said, " I'm so sorry."
I looked curiously at the boy. Oh dear! He was crying. I wondered why he was crying.
The boy said quickly, "It's my mother. She is at home. She had a heart attack!"I knew from my sister.
And he continued, "I'm lookig for a taxi. The taxis will not stop.
" I knew that it was difficult to get taxi. However, I also knew the boy's mother had to go to hospital. The boy looked very sad. He mother might die at home.
Without hesitation, I offered to help. I am waiting for my father. I will phone him to come now."
The boy replied, "You will? Oh, thank you so much!" So I quickly phoned my father to ask him to come at once. In a very urgent tone, I told him about the woman's heart attack. "Please come now, Papa. Someone may die of a heart attack!"
Meanwhile, Aleef and I ran to the boy's home. The old lady was lying in bed. The boy ran to her mother. I helped him to get the old lady up to his feet. She could not stand up at all.Fortunately, Aleef and I were strong boys. We managed to drag the old lady all the way to the gront gate.
By then, my father was outside waiting for us. He got out of the car and rushed over to help us. We reached the hospital in 15 minutes. The hospital attendants were waiting with a stretcher. They carried the old lady inside the hospital and put her in ICU room.
The doctor checked her and told the boy who was looking very concerned, "Luckily, you all bought her to the hospital on time. And now, we have to perform surgery on her heart.She should survive the surgery."
The boy turned to Aleef, my dad and me. He extended his hand and thanked us for helping him.

ReplyDeleteWell.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, your story sent is clear and interesting too. Good job.
Second, about your grammar, the using of " 's ". It is use for showing the ownership. For example, my father's car. If you say, Mak Temah's greeted us, that is wrong. You should say, Mak Temah greeted us. No need to put " 's ".
Interesting story, ajeem. Wishes it is a true story.So kind of you.
ReplyDeleteOkay, firstly what should I comment about?
Emm..1)Make sure that you use the correct words and understand the meaning of the word used.
E.g :
Use 'called' word not 'phone'. Why?
Called shows the meaning of an action which mean calling someone. While, phone just shows the meaning of the object which we use to call someone.
2)Please don't use the word 'drag' because it sounds weird and pity that old woman. Use ' lifted' word. Okay?
That all for now.
Thank you for your comment, Zafikah and Nora Erlan..
