Terrorist attack

Last day in class, the teacher explained her own experience about how she saved her life only for twenty minutes when she was living in New York when the twin towers felt down.

That story reminded me other terrorist attack that Spain was suffered some years ago. Terrorist attack to Madrid’s trains in Atocha station.

I was living in Madrid because I am from there, exactly I was living in Móstoles, a place next to Madrid like Viladecans or Castelldefells when that day arrived. Móstoles is a place that the train takes you only 30 min to get to Madrid. I usually took the train to Atocha station because I was studying my phD. in Madrid. One day I got up and my mother told me that something was happening in trains that it was better for me not to take the train (we didn’t know why yet) but the bus.

When I took the bus, the road began to collapse. Some of the people that where on the bus were wearing little radios in ears and they informed that the bombs were the hypothesis more real. Then began the numbers of dead, there were horrible because he number was increasing in minutes. The mobile lines were collapsed too. All of the families and friend saturated lines calling to people that they thought where in, because they knew their normal way to get work.

Nobody saved my life but it was a very hard day. The after days, people had to continue with their life but in the tube or in the trains there was a deathly silence. If some muslin person took the same train as you were in and even if that person were carrying a bag, most of the people got down of the trains. All the people needed time to recover their normal life.
