911DA Story: Story

On September 11th, 2001 i was actually skipping school so i was not really aware of what was going on. I was sleeping in my bed untill 11 am and i turned on tv expecting to see sportsscenter but it was talking about what had happened and how the planes crashed. I heard that a plane had crashed into the pentagon and at that time my mom worked there so i was extemely scared. I picked up the phone and called my moms office and i got no answer so the whole time i was just praying to myself hoping that she would be ok. About 30 minutes later she came home because she got off work early and i saw her and it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I just was feeling really sad and angry thinking how someone could do this but at the same time releaved because my mom and dad were ok.
