Blank wall

My step-father's brother didn't like people and he didn't like fresh air. He'd sit in his living room staring at the wall. We were all afraid of him. One day, I ventured into the room and asked him what was wrong.
"Nothing's wrong. I just hate scenery," he said.

Doesn't sound like he was a very popular chap. I didn't even know there was a brother.

You have such a strong talent for recalling those telling moments and then finding the perfect artwork to accompany them. Bravo!
