My best friend and I were kidnapped and taken to the mountains at the same time.
She was sold to the eldest son, who was impotent, while I was sold to the second son, who was intellectually disabled.
In the middle of the night, I crawled into a field to steal some sweet potatoes. Suddenly, I heard rustling in the grass behind me.
I was so terrified I froze in place.
Then the person stepped out.
We stared at each other in disbelief, then screamed at the same time.
“Oh my god, you got kidnapped and brought to this family too!”
“Yeah, what a coincidence. When should we run?”
“Whenever you’re ready. I’ll run when you do.”
So one of us played dumb while the other acted clueless, making life miserable for the people who’d bought us.
Our mother-in-law was on the verge of a breakdown every day, until one day she finally snapped.
“You don’t even have to pay me back. Just take these two walking disasters away!”
