“Hi, Megan!” said Noelle. She and Marie walked up Megan’s

sidewalk as though they had just arrived. “Why are you building a

snowman on your porch? Aren’t you afraid it will block your door?”

“Very funny,” said Megan. “I owe you one.”

“No, we’re even,” said Marie. “So, how’s the governor?”

“The governor? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Marie told her about the prank calls.

“You think I made them?” asked Megan. “I wish. But I didn’t.

I walked over to the library this morning to work on my research

report on Peru. I just got back ten minutes ago. Help me get this

snowman off the porch, and we can go inside and get some hot cocoa.”

Marie and Noelle helped Megan roll the rest of the snowman away from the door. Then the girls went in, sipped hot cocoa, and talked.

After a while, Marie stood up. “I’d better get going,” she said.

Noelle stood, too.

The girls started to leave. Then Marie turned back and said,

“So tell me, Megan, who else did you call? Just us?”

“I told you, I didn’t call you,” said Megan.

“Oh, I think you did,” said Marie. “You didn’t go to the library

today. I think you were here all morning being the governor’s

secretary.”
