Memoirs of a Home

Sentimental item: red Japanese mask
Useful piece of furniture: mantle
Aspect of a room: fireplace
Memorable event: Christmas day

Setting: Living room of Grandfather's house on Christmas day


Scene1: As a child I can remember being frightened by this red Japanese mask that hung over my grandfather's fireplace. I wouldn't even go near the fireplace because of this mask. I always felt that it was watching me, looking over my shoulder.
