It came across the sky and descended above us and stayed there for about 15 minutes liked it knew we were there.

I was 13 and playing in my backyard with my sister and cousins who lived next door. I lived in the middle of the block and I was sitting on a swing when I looked up in the sky to my left I saw what I thought was an airplane but as it was getting closer it wasn't it was round in shape and lights, we all ran up our alley to the beginning of the block we stopped and it came lower and hovered above us it looked like there was an outline of a person in it. it stayed there for about 15 minutes it didn't do anything.I was so scared I ran home to tell my mother but it was gone by then.

Till this day I know I saw a ufo my sister dosen't remember at christmas time I got together with my cousins to see if anybody remembers my girl cousin did she said she was glad I brought it up. I don't know why I would remember and nobody else would.
