That night I was extremely happy because my parents were going to party and finally I could see that trunk that my grandmother left us as an inheritance before she died, and that my mother had packed in the attic without letting me see the contents.
I saw them leave from the window of my room, and immediately I went up to reveal all those secrets that would allow me to meet my grandmother, with whom I lived little. It seemed that she was a theater lover or was a great actress, because there were a couple of beautiful period dresses in that trunk, with bright and showy accessories, drawing my special attention a green mask, apparently decorated by hand.
I took her to my room, the best place I could think of to have her near me, without my mother realizing it, was inside the closet, I went to sleep, already with the emotion of some bond with my grandmother.
But he still did not close his eyes when I heard a faint voice coming from inside the closet, and he said: -A glass ... -, at the end of the voice, a strong sound of something breaking was heard in the kitchen, with a bit of disbelief , I went to see what was happening, and the glass I left on the bar had fallen to the floor, I hurried up the stairs, and this time a little louder, the voice said "A plate ..." and slammed into the wall the plate where I take some pizza to my room.
An uncomfortable laugh could be heard coming from the closet, so I approached very slowly, almost measuring my steps, the closet door was half open, when I was very close it hit my face because it opened abruptly ... the mask floated inside the closet, with A well-marked smile that I could not appreciate before, seemed to stare at me while between his lips the phrase came out: - The girl ... - I felt I was suffocating, while a green smoke surrounded me, the mask sank in sinister laughter ... I had no notion of time, but for my fortune it was quite late and my parents were already arriving, when they saw those green flashes in my room, along with the fuss of my kicking, they ran next to me, my mother hit the mask with a cushion and seemed to lose Concentration, then he flew out the window while my Mother said - Your grandmother lost her life trapping her in that trunk, and now you have released her.
I was not so terrified by the expression of anger and disappointment of my mother, as the words of the mask that when leaving my sight said "I will take revenge ...", I do not know if that phrase came directly to me, my family, I do not know how , nor because, in fact I do not know anything, because my Mother does not want to touch the subject, I only see in her eyes the disapproval for my actions and a terrible anguish. Same as mine to think that it will return...
