Story

The Way Out is a short horror story about a mother and daughter placed in the awful situation of having to deal with mom discovering that her daughter is suffering physical abuse from her husband. The dynamic quickly changes as mom shares a story of her own, leading her daughter to make an impossible choice.

Our story starts with Aurora, a successful doctor, arriving at her parents home to help her mother prepare for dinner. Aurora pauses at the door to collect her thoughts - but what is she thinking?

After greeting dad and heading to the kitchen, Aurora and her mother share a laugh and settle in to prepare the evening meal - Adobo Chicken.

Mom promptly begins to stir the pot (literally and figuratively) by pressing Aurora on having a baby, asking: "When will I be a Lola?" As mom continues to press, Aurora quickly becomes agitated and finally breaks, leading mom to discover bruises on Aurora's arm. Aurora reluctantly admits it came from Luke, her husband.

What follows is a harrowing story shared by mom that makes Aurora question her mother's sanity, question her own safety, and puts Aurora in a position of having to make an impossible choice.

How far will a person go to protect the ones they love?
