Finally, 🙂 *whisper*
Freedom, even if temporary, was a sweet luxury. She glanced at the door, a silent promise to herself that she would not return to her old self, even after they were back.
The vibration in her pocket jolted her back to the present. The signal. Her heart pounded in her chest, a mix of excitement and nerves. This was it.
Her Moment
She moved with a newfound purpose, her eyes scanning the familiar surroundings. The living room, the kitchen, the hallway—each space transformed into a potential tool.
She approached the painting, a landscape of a serene lake, that had always seemed out of place in the otherwise cluttered home.
With a practiced hand, she located the hidden mechanism. A click, and the painting slid aside, revealing a secret compartment.

Her voice laced with a steely resolve. Inside lay the tools of her other life: a sleek, high-tech device, a set of lock picks, and a small, concealed weapon. The mission was a go.
The pitiful housewife was gone, replaced by someone else. Someone dangerous.
