Tijjani and Adeola had been planning their escape for weeks. They had been careful to keep their plans secret, but they knew that they had to act fast. The day of their escape had finally arrived.
Tijjani and Adeola had decided to leave in the middle of the night, when the guards were less likely to be paying attention. They had packed their belongings and were ready to go.
Tijjani and Adeola made their way to the edge of the city, where they had arranged to meet their guide. The guide was a man they had met in the market a few weeks before. He had promised to help them escape and had given them instructions on how to get out of the city without being noticed.
When they arrived at the edge of the city, the guide was already there waiting for them. He led them through the darkness, avoiding the guards and keeping to the shadows.
Finally, after what seemed like hours, they reached the edge of the city and were free. They had made it.
Tijjani and Adeola embraced each other, relieved to have escaped the city and the danger they had been in. They had a long journey ahead of them, but they were determined to make it.
They thanked their guide for his help and then set off into the night, ready to start their new life together.
