911DA Story: Story

I WAS AT WORK LISTENING TO MY RADIO, LIKE ANY OTHER DAY. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE NEWS BROKE THRU AND TOLD OF THE TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE HAPPENINGS. I JUST SAT THERE AT MY DESK IN DISBELIEF. I GOT UP AND TOLD MY BOSS, WHO THEN CAME IN TO LISTEN. BEFORE LONG THE WHOLE BUILDING HAD HEARD AND A DEAFENING CAME OVER THE BUILDING. WE ALL GATHERED AROUND A TELEVISION AND WATCHED IN HORROR. TEARS WERE FLOWING AND STILL IN DISBELIEF, SOME JUST COULD NOT CONTINUE THE DAY. WE COMFORTED EACH OTHER AND TALKED TO EACH OTHER.
