“Oh good! They’re my favourite.” Bea watched Rosie munch the sausages happily.

“I’ll just fetch your drinks.” Keira hurried away.

Alfie bit into his cake. “So what are we going to do now? I want to show Rosie to everyone at the palace.”

“We can’t! Dad will never let us keep her.” Bea frowned at her brother but he just shrugged. “Anyway, we haven’t found out who Rosie belongs to. We have to keep her a secret until we do.”

“Fine!” Alfie yawned. “Can we go back now?”

Bea nodded and took a bite of cake. She felt a fluttering in her stomach. She loved the thought of keeping Rosie at Ruby Palace and playing with her every day, but how would she make that work? It wouldn’t be easy to hide a puppy. After all, Rosie seemed to like running off quite a lot!

Alfie and Bea finished their cake and Bea thanked Mrs Makali for the spring rolls.

“Bye, Rosie!” Keira knelt down to stroke the puppy.

“I’ll ask my dad about those people who want to move here,” Bea told her. “Maybe it’s all a mistake.”

“I hope so!” Keira rubbed her forehead.

“Don’t worry!” Bea hugged her friend. “I’ll find out as much as I can. We’d better go – there’s a banquet tonight and we can’t be late.”

Alfie and Bea walked back to Ruby Palace with Rosie scampering ahead of them. Alfie held the spring rolls so that Bea could carry Rosie back over the wall, then they crossed the royal garden. Mrs Cherry, who was digging the vegetable plot, stopped to wave at them.
