My Dad Texted At 3 A.M., ‘Don’t Trust Mom.’ 9 Minutes Later, We Were Fleeing Through The Night, And It Was About To Get Worse.
----------
The story follows a young woman, Sarah, who receives a chilling text from her father while he’s away on a business trip in Seattle. The message simply reads: "Don’t trust your mother," which is completely out of character for him. This sudden, urgent communication sets her into action, waking her younger sister, Emma, and preparing to flee from their seemingly normal suburban home. Sarah, despite not fully understanding the danger, feels a deep sense of urgency and distrust toward their mother, Carol, who has been acting strangely in the days leading up to the warning. With her father's cryptic message in hand, Sarah decides to take Emma and escape, hoping to find safety before anything bad happens.

After sneaking out of the house, the two girls make their way through the neighborhood, trying to stay hidden and find somewhere safe. While they’re on the run, Sarah attempts to contact her father, but his phone is turned off. Carol, on the other hand, starts texting and calling, growing increasingly concerned and threatening, which only fuels Sarah’s suspicions. It becomes clear that their mother is not just worried about their disappearance, but perhaps hiding something sinister. When Sarah finally contacts the FBI, she learns that her father had been secretly working with them on a case involving Carol’s involvement in a large financial scam. The stakes are higher than they realized: Carol is not just a neglectful or paranoid spouse—she's a criminal.

As the night progresses, the situation turns dangerous when Carol begins actively searching for them, even attempting to run them off the road in a high-speed chase. With the FBI’s help, the two girls eventually find refuge and are taken into protective custody, as Carol's crimes are exposed in full. Sarah and Emma’s lives are forever changed as they process the betrayal of their mother’s criminal activities and their father's hidden efforts to protect them. The story ends with Sarah and Emma learning to rebuild their lives with their father, now in witness protection, while grappling with the trauma of the ordeal and the realization that the family they thought they knew was built on lies.
