Flash Card Story
OnSeptember 11, 2001 was the day that completly changed my life. I didnt see it coming no one did; it was a shcoking moment for the people all around the world. I was at Time Square, my friends and I where just about 20 minutes away from all the nightmare. Alexander and Alfredo were the once that notified me about it. I didnt react to anything I was in shock all I remember was them screaming out my name. " Maria, Maria!, We have to leave!!! Maria!" I did hear them but i didn't react; I felt frozen like everything around me was in slow motion. I looked up in the tallest tower which was the north tower and i could see a golden eagle. I was confused why was an eagle gold. The more I stared at it I realized it was a statue that had flown out of one of the windows that got hit. When I finally reacted Alfredo, Alexande, and me started running, I felt we were lions running as fast as they can from disaster. I was holding on to Alexander's hand; I had no clue where we were going all I knew was to run. At a point i had fallen and looked aorund me all around me ws screaming, running, crying, i felt as it was something out of a horror movie. Alfredo got me up and carryied me into his car because i had sprained my ankle. Alfredo drove and drove, i ws sure he didn't know where to go since we had just moved to New York last month. And we had no family here, so he drofe until we got to Boston. And there we stayed listened to the new and heared what had happend. September 11, 2001 the day I surly will never forget. The day in history that no one would ever forget. I'm sorry for all the love ones that died and got ingured in that event i'm sorry for the families that got seperated; may they rest in peace...September 11, 2001
