911DA Story: Story

At first I didn't really understand what was going on, like i wasn't really paying attention. But when my teacher turned on the television, and I saw what was happeneing, I was fightened. I thought to myself, "How could someone do such a horrible thing to someone else" Then the television said that a plane had hit the pentagon. I got rantic because I thought that my brother was supposed to be there that day. Which he was, but reluctantly didn't go. I called my mom crying not knowing if he was okay or not. I got a hold of him and was relieved that he was alright. He showed me a picture of the layout of the pentagon, and showed where he would've been in the building, and it showed that he would've been basically right where the plane hit. I feel so sorry for the people who lost family and friends, but i'm also glad that I wasn't one of those people.
