Dream
I was trying to find the secret attic I knew was at my grandparent's house and I knew my cousin (whom I was very close to as a kid) was going in and out of it. So I decided to wait around until I saw him come out. Turns out said "attic" was actually under the main floor. My cousin had to rip out some floorboards in order to access it and put them back so no one saw him go in. When I saw him come out, I was so happy to find it. But when he was climbing out, he looked panicked at the sight of me and tried pushing me away. I insisted I go in and I pulled him out to find old hidden memories I've been looking for, for so long. Art projects I did, drawings, paintings, school homework, books, and jewelry. I was devastated when I realized my cousin and family took all of this away and hid it so I would become "normal" as I grew up. Looking farther into the "attic" that went under the floor, I found statues and old Knight's swords, things that you would find in a museum, that reminded me of my grandma that had died a few years ago. Searching through I found many large paintings that I remember from somewhere but can't pinpoint where. I was so mesmerized by all of this but still had anger inside me from learning that my own family stole and hid my favorite things from me.
