911DA Story: Story
I woke unusally early on this tuesday, the second day of my senior year of high school. My mom and dad were watching the television and I saw one of the towers on fire. It was strange because I had just been to the WTC that summer. Then from the corner of the screen the second plane hit the second tower. My mom was screaming "Oh, My god!" "Oh My god!!".
We then saw the plane hit the pentagon; we immediately called my uncle and cousin who were in Washington D.C. to see if they were OK, but there was no answer because the phone lines were down. 13 hours later we found out that they both survived hiding in a basement inside the east side of the Pentagon.
