My Love Scout


The summer Jem turned twelve I didn’t go back to Maycomb. Momma was sendin’ me with my father. He was a lawyer like Atticus, and he promised me we would build a fishin’ boat. I sent Scout a snapshot and told her to forgive me. I would miss her a lot, so I told her in the letter that I’d outta love her forever. I promised her we would get married when I got a job and money. Since she was now my fiancé, I asked her to please write back. Summer wouldn’t be the same without her.
