He jerked back, stunned. “Shit,” he breathed out.

“Need to get in there, Troy. Need to find her. She has her dad’s radio—” he abruptly turned, cutting me off. Gesturing for me to follow him.

I did. Running behind him toward his fire truck. He grabbed his radio, turning the frequency on. Putting his mouth up to the walkie, he pressed the side button, stating, “Come in, Autumn. Are you there? It’s Troy. Can you hear me?”

The static noise of the radio faded in and out, screams and chaos rang through the receiver. She was inside. I swear I stopped fucking breathing as I waited to hear Autumn's voice or some indication that she was okay.

She was alive.

“Troy?” the radio crackled, more screaming. “I’m here. Can you hear me?”

My heart soared back to life, roughly snatching the radio out of his hand, visibly taking a deep breath. Stressing out, “Babe, where are ya?”

“Creed… Creed… is that you? People are on fire! Oh my God, Creed! I can’t find my dad!”

More crackling.

More loud booms.

More chaos and cries.

“Where. Are. You?” I demanded on the verge of fucking losing it. Hanging on by a goddamn thread.

Nothing but static radiated from my hand. I peered all around me looking for an opening to bust through, taking matters into my own hands and getting her the fuck out of there. Taking down anyone who fucking stood in my way. Praying to God that this would soon be over, ready to get on my hands and knees and beg for mercy for Autumn’s safety. For Carl’s. Pleading for his forgiveness for all my sins. A loud noise caused me to look up at the sky.

It was then that I knew my nightmare had only just begun.

It was then that I knew the life I’d been living was over.

A passenger plane appeared out of nowhere, disappearing into the South Tower, crashing into the other side of the building. As more minutes passed, thicker black smoke flew out of the windows. Glass shattered into the air, raining down on the streets of Manhattan. More chaos erupted and bystanders started to scream and run for cover all around me. Another explosion hit the building causing me to duck, throwing my arms over my head. Falling to the ground onto my shoulder, dislocating it. Grabbing my throbbing arm, I peered up from the ground to see people running out of the building making the sign of the cross, praying for the people who were stuck and couldn’t get out. Or who had already fucking died.

I put the radio up to my mouth. “Autumn,” I coughed out. “Autumn! Please answer me! Autumn!”

I spent almost the next hour trying the radio, looking through the masses of people for some sight of her. Refusing medical treatment for my arm. I would endure the pain the rest of my life, just to see my girls face again. To know she was alright and not lying somewhere hurt, scared, and alone. Praying she’d found Carl and they were safe.
