At a job I hated: nanny for the world’s worst screamer.
Early. Tired.
The news was on…what’s going on? I asked the mom.
Some plane hit a building in NY.
Sitting. Watching. Soaking it in.
Seeing the second plane come onto the screen in real time.
I’m pretty sure I yelled out loud.
As if I were watching a football game on TV.
No.no.no.no.no.no.no. STOP.STOP.STOP.STOP!
Frantically calling my husband…unware in the histology lab.
The world had changed, and he didn’t even know it.
A day I’ll never forget.
A day you’ll never forget.
