It was all over the news. People were running home to their families. The twin towers crashed! September 11th came to be known as one of the worst tragic events in New York City. I was only 4 years old when this dolorous event had occurred.

Who was that guy anyways, I wondered. Suddenly it came rushing back to me that this was the same guy I went to chucky cheese with. Let me back track. One of my best friend, Almas decided to have a sleepover. My dad being out of town that weekend, a ride to her house was not possible since there was a great amount of travel difference from our houses. My other best friend, Hibba thoughtfully offered me a ride to Almas’s house. She asked me if it was alright to make a stop at chucky cheese for her younger cousin’s birthday before attending Almas’s sleepover. At first I was uncomfortable with the idea of crashing. Hibba however assured me that only her aunt and the little cousin would be there, therefore I decided to attend his birthday. As I got in the car, some guy was sitting in the front seat, “casually” trying to glimpse through the front mirror.
