It was Bella's birthday. She was excited and had a big party planned. Her favorite pink cupcakes sat on the table, topped with frosting and sprinkles. Friends gathered, ready to celebrate, but something was wrong.
The moment Bella counted her cupcakes, she gasped! Five cupcakes were missing! Bella looked at her friends with wide eyes. "Who would take them?" she wondered. The party turned into a mystery.
"We must find out!" said Liam, her best friend. He loved solving puzzles. They all agreed—today, they would become detectives. Bella, Liam, and Mia put on their detective hats and gathered clues.
They first asked Bella's dog, Max. Bella said, "Max, did you eat the cupcakes?" Max wagged his tail and barked. He loved treats, but he hadn’t eaten the cupcakes. The search continued.
Next, they checked the garden. There, they found little footprints. "Look!" Mia exclaimed. "These don’t look human!" The mystery deepened, but so did their excitement. They were detectives on the case!
Soon, they heard giggles. Following the sound led them to the bushes. Peeking through, they saw a group of little kids—neighbors who loved cupcakes too! They were munching away with crumbs on their faces.
Bella felt surprised but also happy. "Hey, you guys! Why didn’t you ask for some?" The neighbor kids looked sheepish but smiled. They had wanted to share in the fun but didn’t know if they could.
Now Bella and her friends realized the truth. "We should have shared!" Bella declared. Instead of being mad, they invited everyone to join the party. Everyone loved cupcakes (especially Bella).
With cupcakes shared, laughter filled the air. Bella felt that the best part of her birthday was not just the treats but the joy of sharing with friends, new and old. Mystery solved!
As the sun set and the party came to an end, Bella smiled. They had learned that sharing was much sweeter than keeping things to themselves. And that made this birthday the best ever!
