Spying my Mother with her secret lover

Description:The assumption is a writer works through the emotions of a scene and then lets it go. The scene is about my digging around in the crawl space of my basement storage area when I was ten years old looking for a Halloween costume and finding a small unfamiliar suitcase. But I pulled the suitcase towards me and opened it. It may have been my first transgression of the rule that we should respect what belongs to others. I thought there might be something secret inside and I wanted to know what it was. In this case the owner was my mother and perhaps she was confident no one but her would ever visit the crawl space in the basement and she left it unlocked.
