Nmah story story

I was in my sevnth grade history class. I got up and asked if I could use the restroom. When I left the classroom the halls where sielent. All the classroom on my halls where dark. Even the classroom of one of the hardest teachers on my hall was dark. I used the restroom and returned to class and didnt think much about it. Fifteen minites later I went to my class and thats when I first saw the smoke and flames come from the Twin Towers. The rest of the day we sat around glued to the T. V.
