it would have been like this

we used to come up those stairs so carefully that even the old grandma's cat watched us quite still with those weird eyes of animal curiosity almost like a person would be, disallowing at the same time. when we finaly got the room we stayed four or five seconds in front of the big golden mirror, and then i used to sit in the main chair and make you a signal with the hand to a little and funny chair in the corner of the bedroom and you just set very close to me. after this traditional ceremony was the real start of the game. that gadget was always a mess, but everything was so colorful that we easily found the things we wanted. it was golden, black, grey, white eyliners. it was bright lip glosses: red ones, pink ones, brown ones, BLUE ones! tha bases were the best. it totaly use to change your face. i think it was because the freckles. but the truth is that i prefered to see you with them. sometimes, we blotted everything because we couldn't stop freting our eyelashes, and we just started from the beggining, painting everything again. when mother caughted us we were send directly to the punishments's room. then we just started crying till our face was totaly a huddle. about tweenty minutes after, i started running to grandpa's bedroom and stole his camera, going back so fast as i could to the punishment room where you were expecting me with your heart beating like an hammer. oh, that use to be so funny. we started laughing very sneak and taking photos like film heartbroken superstairs.

dedicated to tess. happy birthday.
