I want to go out at this hell. This is just too much.

At the corner of my eye, I saw a drill. Because the room of my son is just near ours, I drilled the wall (and hopefully didn't make any sound).

I plugged it in the socket, and as loud as it was, I had no choice. So I plucked it in the wall and drilled it. After a few minutes, I can now see Jasper. He was sobbing in a wall, his head between his knees.

"Jasper! Come close." I called out.

"Mom?" He answered.

"I have the keys here in my bedroom. Get it and open the window and escape. I'll just follow you." I instructed.

"But mom, I'm afraid." He blurted.

He wasn't the only one. Even I was.

"It's okay, mom will just follow. Time it when your father goes to the kitchen or pees. I'll throw the key under my door. I can't unlock my door because the keys are in your father."

"Mom, dad is not around. Go now, I'm waiting outside." He whispered.

So I shoved the key under the gap in our door. My heart was really beating fast. What if we failed? What will he do?

So I peeked into his bedroom and saw him unlocking his window. I prayed to the gods.

"Please. Just this time."

So he jumped out.

After awhile, someone knocked on my window. I was creeped out wondering who it is because the curtain was closed.

"Mom! Open the window. Faster! I can't hold any longer at this bar."

It was Jasper. Quickly, he gave me a barb wire under the small gap of the window. I bent it into some shape and tried it on the lock.

"Tick"

It opened. What a relief. I jumped out first but then, I saw Jason at the kitchen drinking.

"Jasper! A bit faster, Jason is just in sight."

When he jumped, unfortunately, he stepped on a tree branch which caught the attention of Jason.

"Run!" I signaled my son.

We ran into the street while Jason was in our back, two meters away.

We bumped at a few people and got some grunts and curses, but I didn't mind, as long as Jason doesn't catch us.

Because of my ADHD, I spotted a dark alley. I signaled Jasper to go there. After that run, our lungs were burning. Jasper was tired and thirsty. I was pale and bruised. What to do now?

Finally! They escaped. Wew! This chapter is dedicated to percyjacksonlover0 for answering correctly.

Trivia Question: What is the name of the chaffeur that was also the rower of the boat in the River Sphynx?

I know, this chapter sounds cliché but we really have a drill in my room.

P.S. Don't forget apples at night.
