At that moment, the strumming of a guitar filled the room through unseen speakers, and the girls began to belt out the lyrics to a song by Jewel. They sounded awful-- off-key, and out of sync. It didn't take long before the crowd, unimpressed, went back to fighting for their conversations to be heard, inevitably drowning the girl's voices out.

"Thank you for calling Yellow Cab Company," said a woman's voice. "Because of the storm in your region this evening, we are unable to provide taxi service. If you are calling in regards to anything else, please press zero to speak with an operator." I hung up slowly, turning to Mr. Riley. "The cab company shut down," I told him. He nodded. "I thought they might have. The roads are awful." He thought for a moment. "If it's alright with you, you're welcome to spend the night here. We have an extra room. I'd drive you but I don't wan

When the taxi whizzed past his eyes, Howard's eyes widened in pain. ... The taxi driver had good eyesight, so he naturally saw Howard, who was chasing him. Even though he didn't understand the situation, he still asked politely. "Little girl, where are we going next?" "Anywhere, as long as I don't go home." "Uh..." The taxi driver was speechless. After a long time, he said with difficulty, "But, you have to tell me where your house is so that I can bypass it!" Hearing this, Chloe suddenly burst into tears. Then, she covered her mouth and spit out an address with difficulty.

I'll see you soon. Collin flags down a taxi. He opens the door and gets in the back seat. As the cab driver takes off, Collin looks out the window as the taxi drives through the city with its bright lights. Collin enjoys the view. The cab finally arrives at his destination and drops him off in front of Olivia’s favorite restaurant, Joya. Collin gives the cabbie his fare as he smiles, stepping out of the taxi.

Handing it to their leader, he quickly showed me a toothy grin. “I could be your driver, boss, if you need one,” he offered. I grinned back at him before slipping into the driver’s seat. “Finish your college first.” It didn’t take me long. I was out of the school’s premises before a woman could even zip my fly down. Plate number 4N19B. With a bumper sticker of 6743-9081-6257. Yellow taxi. Toyota, 2014 model. Just a glance, but I’d already taken that specific info to heart.

he said with a smile on his face, which I returned, rushing out through the enormous gates that opened by themselves. Now I was out on the streets, staring at the cars that passed by, wondering if it was worth it. “Taxi!” I flagged down the first blue taxi that I saw. The color blue was significant to the Frost pack, so almost everything was embodied in this color. “Where are you headed, ma’am?” the driver asked, and I handed him the paper containing the address, then he sped off. ***

The driver’s just turned on the radio, and, bloody hell, it’s some miserable tune straight outta a funeral march. Violins screech like a banshee’s wail, and suddenly, Monday feels like it’s kicked me square in the gut. “Oi, could you just turn that bleedin’ racket off?” I bark, way louder than intended.

KACELA I stepped out into the bright sunshine, shielding my eyes and looked around. Spotting what I was looking for, I ran across two lanes of traffic and cut in front of a couple who was wrestling three huge bags of luggage. I slid into the taxi that had stopped for them. “The Hyatt Downtown,” I told the driver.

We had spent the last two hours in the penthouse carefully wrapping the wet oil painting in thick brown paper so the edges wouldn't smudge on our way down to the campus.
