The Big House

December 18th, 2007

It was a bright, sunny day; birds were singing and children were playing. At the bottom of the street there was a huge house that towered over the rest. The grass in the front garden had overgrown and the path leading to the front door had big chunks of mud on it. The door was a mahogany red colour like the window frames. In the hallway there was an old-fashioned shoe rack, with three pairs of ripped boots and a pair of black leather shoes. On the walls there were paintings of plants and animals. In the living room, in the corner there was an old fashioned black and white TV. As you walked into the kitchen, on the door there was a picture of a man holding money. Beside the kitchen worktop there was a pair of football boots and a football. On top of the fridge lay a hockey stick, with a mask, and beside the hockey stick lay a trophy with 2^nd place on it.   In the back garden, the grass was perfectly cut and there wasn’t a blade of grass out of place. Lying on a bench was a pile of empty beer cans. At the very back of the garden was a shed, and on the door there was a stain of what looked like blood. As you opened the shed door, on the desk there was an empty tomato ketchup bottle and a fork. At the back of the shed on a shelf there was a picture of a bride and groom, and to the left of the picture, lay a piece of paper.
