The Escape Room

Srija Khanal

Grade : 7

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lily. She had travelled abroad and was now returning to Nepal. Since she hadn’t been to Nepal for a very long time, her family and her friends had planned to surprise her with the activities that the adventurous girl, Lily, liked to do. Her family thought that Lily and her friends -Erica and Mandy could go camping and have fun while doing other activities like boating, fishing, playing games, and more. When Lily reached her house in Nepal, all her relatives and close friends surprised her with a cake, sweets, and take-outs. She had a very good time but was extremely jet-lagged.

Once she felt invigorated after taking 15 Art & Story by: Srija Khanal Grade-VII Mechi a good rest, she set off on the road the next day with her friends. When they needed to hike for a while to reach the camping spot, they noticed that a few men were following them and the girls were very scared. Soon enough, the men caught up with the girls and three of the men started a conversation and were very kind to them. When Lily, Erica, and Mandy started trusting the men, even though they knew that they shouldn’t talk to strangers, the three men, also kidnappers, blindfolded them and pushed them inside a truck. After a long drive, the kidnappers took them inside a house and locked them in a room.

The girls tried to reach out for help and tried calling their parents but there was no service, so unfortunately, their phones were of no help. The locked room was an escape room and if they weren’t able to escape in an hour, they would be trapped inside forever. This information was written on the table. Since the girls were very intelligent, they luckily found clue after clue. Soon, they found the final clue, which led them to a puzzle that had to be solved to escape the room. They heard the kidnappers run up the stairs and they then managed to get out of the room and the house as well.

They tiptoed their way out and attempted to get service on their phones. Erica was very fortunate to have found the service and they called the police in a hushed voice. The three kidnappers got arrested and the police dropped them off at their houses, but before they got out of their car, the police gave them a piece of very valuable advice that could save somebody else’s life, and that lesson was to not follow a stranger or talk to a stranger because a stranger could put one in a danger.
