Doggone! (Ghost Detectors #20) — page 2 — Malcolm took a giant lick of the whipped cream cold and smooth on his tongue Then he picked up the brownie opened wide and chomped Yummmmm He didn’t even care that some got plastered across his chin and cheeks What are you waiting for he asked Dandy Dandy looked down at his own colossal cupcake with its Incredible Hulk green frosting He ran a ﬁnger across the top scooping up a massive glob of the sugary buttery frosting Just before it reached his mouth Dandy’s ﬁnger twitched ﬂicking the frosting splat onto Malcolm’s nose Malcolm crossed his eyes and looked down at the green glob Hey What gives I didn’t do it on purpose Dandy answered My ﬁnger jerked Before
