Default How do I bring up a recovered file?

I had recently typed a 3 page expository essay using Microsoft Word. I typed
it on my laptop. I never saved the Document. But my laptop ran out of battery
and it shut itself off. I brought Microsoft Word back up and it had my
document in the Recovery Task Pane. I opened the document but I failed to
save it. By accident, I closed out the Document and I have no idea how to get
my document back without rewriting it.

If you didn't save it, it's gone.
