Will played with the children for most of the afternoon.
He kept away from the adults sitting on blankets under a tree because he
didn't want to have to answer difficult questions about
Ned. He kept away from Marcus too. Marcus was walking
round the lake, throwing bits of his sandwich at the ducks.
Later, Suzie came to talk to him. 'You miss him, don't
you?'
'Who?' He meant it; he had no idea what she was talking
about. But then he remembered about Ned. 'I'll see him later.'
'What's he like?' asked Suzie.
'Oh . . . Nice. He's a really nice boy.'
Before Suzie could ask more questions, Marcus ran over to them. He seemed
very nervous and upset.
'I think I've killed a duck,' he said.
Will, Suzie, Marcus and Megan stood on the path by the edge of the lake, staring at the
duck's dead body in the water.
'What happened, Marcus?' Will asked.
'I don't know. I was just throwing a piece of my sandwich at it.
I didn't mean to kill it.'
'What's that in the water next to it? Is that the bread you threw at it?'
'Yes,' said Marcus. He didn't like Will much, so he didn't want to answer his
questions.
'That's not a sandwich, that's a loaf,' said Will. 'I'm not surprised the duck was
killed.'
'Perhaps I didn't kill it,' said Marcus. 'Perhaps it died because it was ill.'
Nobody said anything.
They were all staring so hard at the scene of the crime that they didn't notice the
park-keeper standing next to them. Marcus felt very frightened. He would be in big
trouble now.
'One of your ducks has died,' said Will. He made it sound like the saddest thing
he'd ever seen. Marcus looked up at him. Maybe Will wasn't such a bad guy.
'I was told it was your boy's fault,' said the park-keeper. 'It's a crime to kill a duck,
you know.'
'Are you suggesting that Marcus killed this duck? Marcus loves ducks, don't
you.?'
'Yes,' said Marcus. 'They're my favourite animal. I mean, my favourite bird.' This
was rubbish, because he hated all animals, but he thought it helped.
'I was told he was throwing enormous loaves at it.'
'No,' said Will. 'He was throwing bread at the duck's body. He wanted to sink it
because the sight of a dead bird was upsetting my friend's little girl, Megan.'
There was a silence. At last the park-keeper spoke.
'Well, I'll have to go into the water and get it,' he said.
Marcus felt much better. He wouldn't have to go to prison.
