I Was Just Saying Hi...

One night, I heard Jem shuffling around and I knew he was going out. I do not like when he does that but of course I have to go with him. We went downtown and Jem, Dill, and I saw Atticus with a bunch of people. I figured he'd want to see me so I ran ahead of Dill and Jem and said hi to Atticus. He seemed upset and not happy. I was confused. I realized these people were strangers and weren’t our friends. I wondered what they were talking about I wanted to ask Atticus about it later.

I felt a little bit embarrassed saying hi to Atticus, also when I tried to say hi to Mr. Cunningham, he didn’t respond at all. It made me feel stupid like I wasn’t supposed to say anything. It made me upset and I asked Atticus about it and he said not to worry.
