Text

Tack gud för sociala medier denna dagen, att jag kunde ha kontakt med min familj, alla vänner och partner över fb-chatten och att få reda på att alla var ok via "jag är i säkerhet"-funktionen på fb.

Jag rullade in på centralstationen med mitt pendeltåg från Sundbyberg mot Södertälje några minuter efter att lastbilen hade kört in i Åhléns. Det uppstod förvirring vilket bland annat påverkade pendeltågsföraren som osäkert sa att på polisens begäran var all tågtrafik avstängs p.g.a. en trafikolycka. Jag fick en olustig känsla och gick av tåget och upp för trappen mot Klarabergsviadukten. När jag var uppe vid spärrarna så kom människor springandes, skrikande och gråtandes med panik i blicken. En del bar sina barn i famnen eller hela barnvagnar, människor kastade sig ner mot pendelperrongen för att hinna med tåg hem, men förgäves, trafiken var redan stoppad. Jag och tre främmande kvinnor gick bort från stationen, utmed vattnet och utmed Rådhuset mot Söder.

Fick tag på pappa och mamma som inte hört talas om dådet än. Människor gick i lämmeltåg bort från stadskärnan/ TC mot Söder med tårar och panik i ögonen medan informationen från polisen började nå allas smartphones. Såg män i kostymer med dyra portföljer, fixade affärskvinnor i höga klackar gå till fots när inte taxibilarna kom fram genom stan, en man som skjutsade en äldre kvinna på hennes rullator, föräldrar som pratade lugnade med sina barn som högljutt undrade varför de behövde gå, kunde de inte åka tunnelbana?

På Söder fick jag äntligen pusta ut inne på ett kontor nära Zinkensdamm där en vän till mig har en replokal. Vägg i vägg så skulle en mediabyrå egentligen ha AW men den hade ställts in då ingen kunde/ville ta sig dit, så jag fick vin och ost/kex om jag ville av dem. Tillsammans tittade vi på livenyhetssändningen. Rykten florerade om skjutningar på Fridhemsplan, Globen och Mall of Scandinavia. Tack gud för sociala medier denna dagen, att jag kunde ha kontakt med min familj, alla vänner och partner över fb-chatten och att få reda på att alla var ok via "jag är i säkerhet"-funktionen på fb.

När jag äntligen kom inomhus runt 19 på kvällen så stannade vi där. Vi pratade om dagen, lyssnade på livesändningen, pratade med våra föräldrar på telefon och kramade om varandra extra hårt innan vi somnade den kvällen.

Jag försökte göra normala saker under helgen, var utomhus och åkte på en fest på lördagen. PÅ måndagen så hade vi en minnesstund på Södertörns Högskola där jag pluggar.

Jag tror att det kommer ta lång tid innan jag rör mig avslappnat på Drottninggatan igen, och självklart kommer man vara mer uppmärksam vid stora folksamlingar och liknande.

All kärlek o styrka till offren o dess familjer. <3
