What happened to the days when grandma would make fresh rolls and mother would make her famous caps for me? What happened to the crisp breeze that would roll in through the wide open windows during the day? Because I am surely missing them. Today my 3 story apartment building was searched by the Red guards. I’ve never been so nervous in my life. I’ve heard the stories and sadly something very bad has happened to my family. This afternoon the Red guards took my mother away and trashed my home taking many of my family’s valuables even knocking over my fish bowl which made my whole room smell like a pond. This has left me and my family in shock for the past couple of hours and I don’t know if some of my family members can handle the pressure anymore.
