911DA Story: Story
Well, mine is a small simple storie that may not have a large heart wrenching plot. But here it is
I woke up on September 11th 2001 when only the firt plane had struck. I wandered into my parents room and watched on the news, the shocking tale. People thought it was and accident, my father didn't belive it was. Then the second plane rocketed into the second tower. It was at that time that all doubt was gone. and it was known that this was no accident. We watched in horror as the events unfolded. I heard of the plane that struck the Pentagon. And so I ran and told my grandmother who was still asleep. I remember a small amount that was said prior to the attack concerning Terrorism. So when I woke up my grandmother I said: They did it. They said they would do it and they did it.
Then I explained to her what had happened. When I returned to my parents bedroom, my father said that the towers might not hold. and shortly afterwards the first tower fell. Not much of note happened afterwards except when we were in our pick-up driving to do something. Peter Jennings said via raido. Soft and quietly, that the second tower had fell. When we had arived where we were going. We were at our friends house. And there we buried our beloved goat, who had died, ironically, the day before.
