My Grandma’s House
By: Kaito Ota
When you reach Japan and get off the airplane you can use a limousine bus or a train. I
use the limousine bus because if we use the train we have to go to many train stations and then
walk to my grandma’s house. If we use the bus we will go to the city area where my uncle
would pick us up and then drive to my grandma’s house.
My grandma’s house is in a small residential area. It is near an elementary school where
my little cousin learns. In front of my grandma’s house is a clinic which is quite big.
Near my grandma’s house there is a store which looks abandoned. On the right side of
this store there’s an old Japanese style house in which people still live. There is also a valley
nearby which I walk to and there’s seven eleven next to it so I go there almost every day. There
is also an underground place for walking across the street.
My grandma’s house is a small 2 story house. When we go inside the house we see a
fish tank and a shoe rack in front. There is a sliding door which is usually closed because the
mosquitos come in. When you open the sliding door you see a living room. There is a big
television and a table that has a heater below that we turn on if it’s winter. There is a small
couch for watching television. Then in the living room there is one more sliding door that when
we open has a kitchen. To the left of the kitchen there’s a door that opens in a toilet. It also has
a panel for looking who is in front of the door when someone rings a bell. Next to the kitchen
is the shower, which has a sink and a tub if it is winter the water will be hot using the volcanic
heat. In the kitchen there’s a staircase which leads to the 2nd floor.
On the second floor to the left is the guest room where I normally sleep. Next to the
guest room there is a toilet and next to the toilet is where my grandma and grandpa sleep. In
my grandparent room there’s an old broken computer and a mattress.
