“Oh, she isn’t really, Mum!” Chloe protested, giving Maddy a horrified look. “She’s lovely! She didn’t mean to hurt me.”

Jess sat in her basket, her eyes swivelling between Mum and Chloe, shivering at the loud, upset voices. Mum kept looking at her as though this was all her fault. And Jess had a horrible feeling that it was.

Chapter Five

Will smiled and shook his head as he spotted Chloe walking up the children’s ward, a big plaster on her knee. “I know you miss me, Chlo, but cutting your leg off so you can stay in hospital too, that’s just dim…Seriously, what did you do?”

Chloe grinned at him. “I took Jess for a walk! Well, me and Maddy did.” She looked down at the plaster and shrugged. “But Jess wanted to chase a squirrel, and I tripped…”

Will beamed. “That’s brilliant!”

“Hey!”

“Not your knee! Brilliant that you took Jess out. Thanks, Chlo. I’d been really worrying about her.”

Chloe sighed and glanced over at her mum, who was talking to the doctor. “I’m not sure Mum’s going to let me take her out again, though,” she whispered. “She was so cross. Jess has been really naughty in the last couple of days.”

Will thought for a moment. “Well, if you really can’t talk Mum round, perhaps you can wear off some of her energy in the garden. She loves playing fetch, and you could try hiding one of her toys and getting her to play hide-and-seek, that’s fun. Then maybe she’ll be a bit less mad.”

Chloe nodded. “Good idea. Anyway, I might still get Mum to give in.”
