‘Oh, sorry!’ she said, but she didn’t sound very sorry as she poked the cap with her big toe. ‘Anyway, I have to find those trophies! We’ve all worked so hard for them!’ No more tears appeared on Bella’s cheek. She was back.

Davey picked up his cap and put it on his head. ‘Maybe you’ve put something on top of them,’ Sunil said helpfully. ‘That’s what my mum always says and in ninety per cent of cases she’s right.’

Bella shook her head. ‘No. I know exactly where they were and exactly how many there were. Now the whole bag’s gone!’ She grimaced and gave her ponytail another flick. Then she narrowed her eyes. ‘You guys didn’t take them, did you?’

Davey rolled his eyes.

‘Well, did you?’ Bella put her hands on her hips and stared at them accusingly.

Sunil sighed. ‘Bella, when would we have had the chance? We’ve been fielding since we started to play, then Davey was blamed for hitting Mudge’s ice cream and we had to go see the lifeguard, which is where we’ve been for the last forever. We wouldn’t have had the chance to take them, even if we’d wanted to – which we wouldn’t!’ Now Sunil had his hands on his hips.

Bella stared at them for a moment, then made as if to wave them away. ‘Okay, but if you see a big black bag unattended, please tell me.’ She turned on her heel and ran off towards the surf club.

Davey shook his head. ‘They can’t blame that one on me. And anyway, you’re right. We were fielding the whole time.’

‘They’ll find them,’ Sunil said. ‘Who’d steal a bunch of trophies?’

‘Dunno.’ Davey shrugged. ‘Either way, I’d better go. Otherwise Mudge and that lifeguard will see I’m still here.’ He gave Sunil a push. ‘But don’t forget: Tay’s a good spin bowler, and try George behind the wicket.’

‘Got it,’ Sunil said. He handed Davey a Whopper Chomp. ‘Here, that’s on the house.’
