Sophie couldn’t help smiling as more kids began to gather. Soon everyone was cheering, “Go, Sophie M.! Go!”

And she did. Sophie jumped and jumped like she’d never jumped before.

She passed a hundred!

She was going to set the all-time record!

One hundred and thirty … one hundred and thirty-one … one hundred and —

Then the rope caught her leg.

“My turn!” Mindy sang out right away.

Sophie turned and glared at Mindy. This time, it was not out of habit.

“You tripped me!” she cried.

“I did not!” Mindy said. And then … did she smile at Lily? Sophie was sure that she did. That proved it—Mindy had tripped her on purpose!

“I want to go again!” Sophie told her.

“All right, class! Recess is over! Time to come in!” Ms. Moffly’s voice rang out across the playground.

“You heard Ms. Moffly. You don’t want to get in even more trouble,” Mindy said too sweetly.

“But …,” Sophie began.

But nothing. It was too late. Mindy and most of the other kids were already running in.

Kate put her arm around Sophie’s shoulder. “Don’t worry,” she said. “You can break the record tomorrow. Look how close you came!”

Yes, she was close. But that wasn’t enough for Sophie.

Close wasn’t the same as awesome. Not at all.
