The night was dark and cold. Hank waited for everyone to be
asleep first. It was (1)
approaching midnight. This was his chance to
(2) sneak out
into the shed. With much difficulty, he
(3) hoisted the ladder up. He then
(4) leant it
against the wall. It was short of a rung. However, he had little
choice but to climb it. He just had to get back into the attic.
Hank had to check things out for himself. Max should have known
that this was (5)
inevitable when he broke the news to Hank. If Hank did
not investigate further, this matter would consume him and he
would not be able to focus on anything else. |
