Lets get a few things straight. This story doesn't have a happy ending. 

I get on that plane. No amount of dramatic actions, or a clique love story will stop me. 
No magical time travelling-greek-god looking guy comes back from the future to save me. I don’t become a hero and save everyone on the plane.  Because I’m not a hero, I’m not a teenage
cliché and this story doesn’t have happy ending. So don’t hold your breathe. 


I get on that plane and I die. But that’s not the point. 

Sometimes life doesn’t have a happy ending. And its taken me so long to realize that that’s ok. You don’t have to change the world to make a difference; you don’t have to have an impact to make your life worth something. 

September 11 2001, I’m not going to say that this day “changed history” that it was “a turning point in society” because I’m a teenage girl not a news anchor. 9/11 was the day I died. I was on
that plane. I never got to see my parents again, I never got to grow up, hell I never even finished high school. But I don’t want anyone’s sympathy, I don’t what to feature in anyone’s prayers, to be honest I don’t even want to be remembered because I didn’t do anything worth remembering. 

But that doesn’t mean my story isn’t worth telling… that’s the point. 


*This story isn't about the actual events of 9/11 but rather that characters. It is a fictional piece of work that is loosely based on real life events.
