FULL SUMMARY:
In hoofstuk 10, skryf Tim die skokoladekoek af wat Marli by Fego's vir hom gekoop het. Na middagete, besluit hy om te gaan oefen in die sekeriteitslandgoed waar hy en sy gesin woon. Terwyl hy oefen, hoor hy 'n meisie in die donker roep vir 'n hond genaamd Oreo. Tim ontmoet Oreo, wat naby hom sit en hom weier om na sy eienaar terug te keer. Die meisie, wat blykbaar 'n Engelse aksent het, wil nie dat Tim haar ontmoet nie, so sy vertel hom dat sy Oreo later sal kom haal. Tim is verbaas en 'n bietjie beledig deur haar reaksie. Hy gaan tevergeefs aan met sy oefeninge. Aan die einde van die hoofstuk verskyn Amber by haar huis, verontskuldigend vir lat wees en praat oor hoe wild Oreo was. Sy oorweeg om haar ervarings neer te skryf, maar besluit uiteindelik om haar gedagtes vir haarself te behou.
