Isabella Poma

When I was probably about 8 years old to 12, my brother and I played all types of games in there because my mom would always have meetings. We pretended to play bartender. We’d pour Sprite and put limes in it. The front door was red and glossy and you could use your finger if it was foggy and draw on it. And then there was always wristband bands that they would give when you walked in and one time my brother put them all the way up his arm. Probably 15 of them. We can't show Mom. She's going to be so mad. We didn't realize that it was probably like two dollars worth of bands. We would always play hide and seek because there's three different rooms, and I remember one time we went up to the balcony and we played up there. I went inside Pulse after it happened with my mom, she was telling me how somebody that I knew was hiding up there, and it hit me. Somebody had to go up there to protect their lives. We used to go up there for fun.
