Chapter.6 Peek-a-BOO
Tonight was my last night here in Maycomb.. But i'll really dearly miss them. Anyway, we decided to take a stroll but as you know Jem and I actually planned to go and take a peek through the loose shutter in the Radley Place.
So we set off and we decided it would be better if we went under the high wire fence. Jem and Scout helped me up to try and see through the window but there was nothing but curtains. Oh i was so excited cos' i can't wait to see wait Boo actually looks like. I can't bear to wait for another summer to plot another plan to get Boo out. We went to Boo's front porch as our second plan and there it was at the window. I saw a towering shadow over at the window walking towards Jem where he was standing. I put my hands to my face as i was so scared as if i have had the worst nightmare of my step father locking me up in an underground cave with Boo. The next thing i knew i saw Jem running sprinting towards me and threw open the gate and dragged Scout and I along with him and Jem held up the wire for us. Scout and I continued running but I had a weird feeling Jem wasn't with us anymore. So the both of us went back to help Jem and he let loose his pants just to get out.
The three of us tried to rush back somewhere they would expect to see us come from and not from the Radley Place as it would probably arouse suspicion from everyone. But Jem couldn't help being noticed by everyone that he didn't have his pants on. Thank goodness Jem thought fast cos' i said he lost his pants in strip poker but Jem mentioned that they were playing with match sticks.
Last thing i remember was Aunt Rachel nagging at me. Thank goodness for Atticus.
