"My mom is making me and Sam go to our grandmas with her"

"What why"

"Her and my dad got in a big fight about terry silver and how out of hand everything is getting and she said that we were going to my grandmas without my dad"

"That's terrible, I'm so sorry. but she does have a point about the whole Terry Silver thing"

"Yea, but I promise I'll be home soon and we will hangout as soon as I get back"

" ok don't forget to text and I'll update you on everything that happens here"

"I will don't worry I have to go but I promise I'll call and text as much as I can. Bye Cass"

"Bye, Ant"

I hung up the phone and sighed. Why did he have to leave when summer just started. I put down my phone and walked out of my room. It was a terrible idea cause I walked into what looked like a toddlers art project. There was weird music playing, card board taped to the hallway trying to act as old timey doors, a sign that said jail above it, and an oddly impressive beer can cactus. I was distracted from my confusion with the door opening and Miguel and my dad walking in. Miguel held the same confused look that I had.

"Don't worry Robby isn't here" my dad reassured Miguel and walked up to Robby's door. Even though Robby was in his room. I knew my dad was up to something weird.

"What's all this" Miguel was clearly referring to the Alamo reenactment that was going on in my living room.

"Don't worry about it" my dad knocked on Robby's door and I sat on the couch not wanting to miss out on what was about to happen. Miguel turned to me puzzled as to what was going on,I just shrugged my shoulders at him and looked back at the cardboard doors seeing Robby walk out.

"You literally just said he wasn't here" Miguel rolled his eyes.

"Yea well I lied again not my fault you fell for it twice" my dad sassed back as Miguel sighed. "But you guys are right tricking you guys into lunch wasn't my best effort. So I did some interneting. Found a bunch of strategies for building trust and teamwork through cooperative exercises, the least lame one is called an escape room how it works-"

"I know what an escape room is and I'm not doing it" Robby cut our dad off with his arms crossed and then gave a glance to Miguel then,me.

"Yea that goes double for me" Miguel for the first time ever agreed with Robby. Miguel turned to the door and tried to open it but it was locked.

"I reversed the doorknobs it locks from the inside" he told us and we all humphed. "And here's the only key" my dad showed the key than dropped it in the sink and turned on the garbage disposal. "Glued the windows shut so no one gets out of here unless you work together, oh and Cassie you can't help your to smart for this crap go braid your hair or something in your room"the compliment seemed back handed but I still stood up and hurried to my room wanting out of the tension filled awkward space.

I closed the door and jumped on my amazingly comfortable bed. I grabbed my headphones and started to play my boredom playlist. I sat and listened with my eyes gently closed for about 20 minutes when I felt the vibrations of my phone and checked the message. There was a text from Lia saying
