CHAPTER FORTY ONE

Night of the great escape

'Mayra was to reduce the number of times she came to the Stable. It was to make her gullible brother believe she didn't care about us anymore and it worked. The best way to leave the compound where security was low was the mansion and Mihika's job was to figure out and gather information about the schedules of Ms.Tee's work and also the best time it would have been to leave that house. Abhimanyu who was doing the packing turned to work in the green room and everyday he would steal a few rupees just enough to become some good amount at the end of the month but just little enough that no one would notice it was gone...'' she said letting out a sigh as if she was exhausting to talk about the whole thing but she powered through and continued

'My job was to ensure that the money stolen was to be kept safe in a place where no one would find it and it was to change it every 3 days just to avoid detection. Jai being the youngest and the only one allowed freely between the Stable and the Mansion was going to be our message delivery guy.'' She added

'So how did you get the messages across...''Said Raman

'Well I think Ms. Tee's biggest mistake was giving us basic education, you know we were to learn the basics; you learnt how to read and write. It helped in the packaging and the whole green room counting of money. Also when it came to developing her cannabis, she always found ways of improving her brand and all of us little slaves were to learn how to read. We were given literature to read all the time about marijuana brands and that is how it helped. There was a teacher who came every end of the week to teach us. We always sat in this room, filthy as hell but you had to attend or be disappeared. She was a fool for giving us that basic education.'' She said letting out a small laugh

'Did you know that every letter of the alphabet is represented by a number? It was easy all Mihika had to do was get the schedules and record them down on a piece of paper and find a way to give them to Jai who cleaned the main house. To a lethargic eye they just seemed like random numbers on a piece of paper or some child revising math.'' Ishita added

'That was brilliant actually...'' Said Raman which weirdly brought a smile on Ishita's face, something that hadn't happened since they walked into that house

'Mihika would write them, Jai would de-cord them and Abhimanyu and I were to read them and find a flaw in her tight system and we got it. She had parties every month and we just needed to find a way to get round that security and once out of that compound it would be easier to just plan everything else from there.'' She said as she turned to look at Raman who was listening attentively and added

'There was a flaw in her security and it was her ego and naivety. Every month she had a party, a ravish party for her men, there was alcohol, drugs, women, pills, you name it and it was there. She was so nave thinking there was no one who dared the leave her compound and she knew people revered her so she thought that no one would ever dare to go against her. The fear factor was there because everyone who escaped, she always found a way to bring them back. But when you have four very determined kids who have nothing to lose and everything to gain, it becomes a recipe for disaster.'' Said Ishita

'Weren't you scared?'' Asked Raman

'Of course we were but it beat staying in that house anymore. So the day came and everything went on as usual. Abhimanyu went to the green room, I went to the farm, and Jai went to the house where he was to do the chore there. Mihika kept him calm and gave him company. I think they gave each other strength to go through it. So the night came and those idiots like very party night always left the main gate open and went to the mansion for booze and there was a 45 min window every single time and that was going to be our time frame. That was going to be the day we escaped...'' Said Ishita
