702Team3: The Church Bombing

It all started on a sunny sunday evening. The sun was so hot ,it felt as though i was right next to it. The skies were clear, there were hardly clouds but it was really bright. Their were people on their front porches fanning them selves. That Birmingham heat was unbelievable. At this moment I wish I was back in Flint, Michigan. Kenny was outside in the backyard, resting under a tall tree which had a large shadow so it must've been pleasent. Papa was on the inside sleeping. I don't know where momma was but i guess she was sleeping to. As I walked outside I heard a loud booom!!!!!!, everybody walked outside to see whether it was thunder. The weird thing was that the sun was out and the skies were clear. After that, people kept in going on with their day. A couple minutes later, a man came by the house, he told us that there was a bombing at the church were Joetta was going to sunday school. I ran upstairs to tell mama and papa what had happened. When I told them they immediatly started getting dressed. I ran to the room where I was staying for now and started getting dressed. Kenny came upstairs and asked me what happened and I told him what the man said. Kenny just stood there in shock I told him I was going to go see what had happened. I ran to the church and I saw firetrucks, police men, and 3 little girls laying on the ground. It lookes as if their dress were ruby red, the truth was that they were covered in blood. After that mama,papa,and me started crying cause we thought Joey had died. After that whole scene I was talking to kenny and he told me that joey was telling him about how she was running after him because she saw kenny calling her and telling her to run after her. Kenny denies that he was even there. I think I learned that that life is not i joke and that everyday we have to count our blessing because we might never know what we had until we've lost it. I've also learned that I can;t take what I have for granted.
