MISCHIEF
When I was a child I lived next to my
stepfather’s job. He had a pantry
of recycling. There
were newspapers, magazines, junk and old toys. I played in the
cellar with my brothers and we
always found something new to do. But
my mom didn’t like that we
played there because we always got
very dirty.
One day we found a golden ribbon and we played mummies. We wrapped the ribbon around our bodies and we played all day. When we finished playing we were completely golden as the tape released its color, so I decided to look like an Egyptian queen and I painted my entire body with the golden ribbon.
When we came
back with my mother she was very
angry and she made me take a
shower in the backyard with a hose, but unfortunately
the paint I could not get the paint off my body.
We were punished very strongly and I also had to go to
school for a whole week with the
skin covered in gold, so all my
classmates laughed at me.
