The Struggle - Of Escape, To Captivate

Outside:

The crack is widening. I can feel the tremors, a buzz from inside. It would collapse anytime now. Whether I break it myself, the wall?

No, no, it will spoil the fun. Patience!

Inside:

This is scary. Hear my palpitations.

This is the right time, sis. Let’s break.

I can sense the tempest outside; what will be awaiting us, bro?

One more moment and the wall would shatter. What if they come out and escape spontaneously? The wait from the last three attempts is already vain. I should not miss the opportunity and seize them.

Let's do it together. At each count, we push the wall with full might. Three…

Wait, three- you go, two- I go, one by one?

No, let us strike together, the harder the blow, the easier will be our escape sis.

You’re insane. Okay. Here we come, strange world!

Three… Two…

No failure, no regrets. I have to capture it.

Oh, a small hand is coming out. And a head too. Let me…

One… Out we go.

…shoot!

Voila, well done, slipping mom’s camera paid off. A pair of chicks hatching the egg, origin of life: so odd yet alluring.

Impressive submission for my class project.

PS: Hatching of a double yolk egg is a rare phenomemon and survival is even rarer.
