Continuation

Jem cried, "Are you leaving me???"
Nicah stopped. "Guess I should stay here with Jem."
Jasper replied, "Okay. We'll go to Mish's house. Grab his laptop. Come back. Check out what's happening to Carlos and Ren."
Yanna smiled, "That's easy enough. Let's go."
Grabbing the CD, they left Jem and Nicah in the room.

Downstairs...
Almira said, "Great! I forgot our car exploded."
Joshua said, "Why not ride a taxi?"
Mishka called for one and in a few seconds, one stopped.
"Bad news, y'all can't fit," the driver said. He was dressed in black and had a cigarette on his left hand.
Jasper told them to split up. Jasper and Almira ride in another taxi to go to Ren's house. Joshua, Mishka and Yanna ride in this one going to Mishka's house. Joshua sat on the front seat.
"Fix your seat belt," Yanna said.
"Okay, Ate," Joshua said. Why am I calling someone older than me Ate?
Yanna smiled back evilly.
Mishka sat on the back and waved at Jazz and Almira.
Jasper and Almira got another taxi and went in the opposite direction.

Nicah was on the PC. She was researching and surfing the web.
"Hey Jem. Is Jet really in a business trip?"
Jem replied with a cough. "I don't know." "Ahhh!"
She clenched her waist.
Nicah called for the nurse. The nurse went inside the room with a doctor.
"Hang on Jem..." Nicah said.

For 10 minutes, Joshua felt something strange about the taxi. Especially the driver. He tried to tell the other two at the back but felt as if it wasn't the right time. This driver's dangerous. If I could only tell them...
The taxi stopped at Mishka's house. "We're not leaving yet," Mishka said to the taxi driver. "We're just getting something from this house." Mishka headed to his house.
Yanna got off. Joshua got off too.
He went to Yanna. Remembering, he said, "Ate, I found something about..."
"Hey. Stay inside the car so he won't go." She pushed him back to the front seat.
"Fine," Joshua said.
Yanna went to Mishka to help him.
Joshua started talking, "Hey Mister. You're not a taxi driver, aren't you?"
The driver blew from his cigarette once more. "What makes you think that?"
"My friends from the back seat may have been fooled by you. But I sat here on the front seat."
"Hmm...? What are you talking about. You're just a kid, ain't ya?"
"I'm not only a kid," Joshua said. "I'm a detective." Oh man. It came out of my mouth!!!
"Well... there ain't no place for detectives in my sight." The driver floored the pedal. Yanna and Mishka looked out the window. "Oh no, what just happened?"
