911DA Story: Story

I was sitting in the library just reading and Mr. Vargo, our principal, walked in and whispered something to the librarian. I was sitting just close enough to them to hear what he said. I heard " We've been attacked". At first I didn't know what to make of it but once she turned on the T.V. we all found out.
It was really disterbing. They just kept replaying the events over and over as in a movie but it was nothing like a movie this really happened. At that moment i just wished it was all a dream although i knew it wasn't. And what really made me mad was that the teachers wouldn't let us watch the events.
We all knew our lives would never be the same ever again but the key is not tring to forget but to learn to live with the horrible memories.
