\n24681097531  \nCHAPTER 1  \n# DOUBLE CELEBRATION\n\nDani  \nFriday afternoon  \nI looked up at the clock on the classroomwall:3.29pm.  \nI yawned.Still one minute to go until the end ofschool.But not just the end of school;the end ofthe week and the end of term,too.  \nIt was tutor group.Ms Watson had already donethe notices so we were just sitting there waiting.I started counting down the seconds.Ten,nine,eight..  \nAt last the bell went.Everyone stuffed their booksinto their bags and made for the door.  \nI headed straight for the school gates.  \n\"Dani!\"  \nI spun round.Evie was racing towards me.  \nA word about Evie.I've known her since wewere in nursery.She is my best mate.Not thatwe’re very much alike.Evie is tall and sporty.Her dream is to go to the US and become aprofessional footballer.Me?I’m not tall.AndI'm definitely not sporty.My thing is singing.School talent contests,karaoke,in the shower—basically,I'll sing anywhere.Evie says it's becauseI like the sound of my own voice.She's allowedto say that because she's my best mate.  \n\"Have you seen the boys?\"Evie asked.  \n\"No,\"I replied.  \nEvie and I were meant to be meeting up with  \nMatt,Bradley and Mo.After a bit,I saw Bradleyand Mo walking slowly towards us.Honestly,I'veseen snails move faster.  \n\"Come on!\"I yelled.  \nSlowly they caught us up.\"Where's Matt?\"I asked.  \n\"Where do you think?Bunking off school,\"muttered Mo.“Again.”  \n\"Well,it is his birthday,\"Evie pointed out.  \n\"He's been missing loads of lessons lately,\"saidBradley.\"He's well behind with his Design Techproject.\"  \n\"He didn't show up for the match on Wednesdayafternoon either,\"Mo added.\"They had to putsome Year 9 kid in goal.We lost 6-0.It wasembarrassing.\"  \nI frowned.\"That doesn't sound like Matt,\"I said.  \n“Coach said he’d be out of the team if he pulledthat kind of stunt again,\"said Mo.  \n\"He'd better turn up tonight,\"said Bradley.  \nMatt's mum was paying for us all to have a mealat Simply Pizza to celebrate his birthday and,asit was also the last day of term,it was a kind ofdouble celebration.  \n“Of course he'll show up,\"I said.\"Missingschool or a football match is one thing,butnobody misses their own birthday celebrations.\"  \nEvie and I left the boys to get their bus.They liveat the other end of town from us.  \n\"It should be a really good evening,\"Evie said.\"Especially for you.\"  \n# \"What do you mean,especially for me?\"\n\n\"Honestly Dani,sometimes you're just so thick.He likes you.\"","cbCaikLvEzTTPZ7S","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikLvEzTTPZ7S","pdf",1860427,46,"English","# DOUBLE CELEBRATION\n## Chapter 1\n## Friday afternoon","[{\"question\":\"Where does the story open and
