My theme for this year’s Blogging from A to Z April Challenge is Crime Stories in 55 Words. Today’s story, E is for Escape…
Ryan rummaged through the kitchen cabinets to find mugs.
As he poured the coffee, he saw the unspoken question in Luke’s eyes.
“Relax, I’ve got it covered”, said Ryan with his usual nonchalance.
Luke appeared skeptical.
“This house belongs to the prison chief who’ll be searching for us all night”, explained Ryan with a wink.

What a perfect place to hide

Reminded me of ‘Prison break’ 😀 Ah those wily prisoners! Can’t keep them in one place, can you ?
Yeah, they are a bunch of crooks.
Safest place to hide! Right under the nose of chief authority! Excellent!
Yes… SAFEST! Thanks Sheela 🙂
No place can be as good as that 😀 brilliant chap!
True 🙂
Perfect Movie Plot
Hmmm… there must be something like that somewhere!
Remember a dialogue from Sherlock Holmes where he says what we search for maybe right before our eyes but where we least expect it
Yes, that’s what usually happens.
Hide where they are least likely to look. Brilliant. 🙂
Absolutely! Thank you Vinay 🙂
Hahahahaha! Cheeky!
Loving your posts, Shilpa!:)

Thanks Zainab 🙂
What a clever story!! bagal mei baccha, gaon mei dhindhora!
You bet 🙂
Oh, these criminals are too smart! But I’m wondering why the police chief didn’t have some hi-tech alarm system for his own home 😛
A pretty cool twist in the tale, Shilpa 🙂
Now that’s a nice thought. May he was complacent! 😉
Thanks Mithila. Glad you liked this one 🙂
The perfect hiding place! I love it

That’s smart :-). I like the the attitude – unhurried and fearless.
Hallmark of a seasoned con, I guess!
LOL! That’s absolutely fantastic!
Sorry I’ve disappeared. I had a computer problem for the past couple of days. Of course it had to happen during the challenge…
Thanks Sarah.
Oh, that’s a bummer. Hope all’s well now!!
Oh this reminds me of the series Prison Break!
And it reminds me of Orange is the New Black 🙂
That’s what you call a smart criminal. 🙂
Yes, they are indeed smart 🙂
Haha! Excellent escape plan. 🙂
