Mike and Veruca got home. Veruca walked into the living and dropped her handbag right onto the floor. Veruca stared at Mike.

"Okay Mike, so what do you mean somebody's been hacking into my laptop? Who has been stealing my money?", asked Veruca.

Mike made a "Come on.." move with his hand. She followed him to the kitchen. Mike picked it up from the counter and showed it to Veruca. Her eyes moved swiftly through the transactions showing withdrawals. Veruca's eyes widened in shocked as she could see how much money she has left.

"This...this is crazy.. how come I didn't see this in front of my eyes!?!", exclaimed Veruca feeling shocked and speechless.

Whenever she used her laptop she that hadnt even noticed this happening!

"Who is stealing my money like this?". Veruca looked at Mike Mike shrugged his arms. Veruca looked back at her computer. The money she has now was dropping down really fast! She thought about calling her Daddy to tell him about the hacking.Veruca quickly got her phone out and type in the numbers to call him.

"Wait,wait,Veruca,what are you doing?",asked Mike.

"I'm calling my Daddy to come over here to see this! I can't believe this is happening to me.",said Veruca.

"But, wait, do you think we should work together to solve the case to see who the hacker is?",asked Mike.

Veruca put down her phone.

"Why didn't think of that?",asked Veruca.

She and Mike sat down at the kitchen table to discuss.

"Now,do you have any suspects?", asked Mike, seriously trying to act like a detective.

"Well, there's this one guy...", began Veruca feeling uncomfortable about saying his name.

"A guy!?", shouted Mike in shock. Mike couldn't believe the suspect is a guy! He stopped and thought about the way he said. It made he wonder why did he reacted that that way?

But he continued listening to Veruca telling him about the guy until they heard Veruca's phone ring. Veruca picked it up right in front of him.

"Hello?", she asked.

"Hello, Veruca, this is your mother speaking."said the older lady voice on the phone. She sounded sad.

"Mommy, what's going on?",asked Veruca. She was afraid the sadness from her mother.

"Your ,um ,father had a bit of a accident while heading home...", said Mrs.Salt.

"Wh-what accident!?", shouted Veruca. Veruca sprung a tear in her eye.

"Your father got into a car accident. I got a call from a nurse or a doctor saying that a car had hit him while he was crossing the street on his way home. That made him go into a coma...I'm sorry.", Mrs.Salt as the phone call ended.

Veruca was bringing out more tears from her eyes.

"Veruca, are you okay?", asked Mike. He was about to touch her on the shoulder. Veruca turned around to him, tears streaming from eyes to cheeks and landing on the ground.

"Mike, everything's not okay! Its like it's coming apart!" Veruca was almost hysterical.

Mike turned very quiet as Veruca calmed down and took a deep sigh.

"I'm sorry that I yelled, but ,I need space.",said Veruca as she walked to her room and shut the door.
