Aunt Alexandra say's that she is going to stay more time with me and Scout to give Scout a feminine influence. Aunt Alexandra is very proud and happy about our family and she spends for time talking about the characteristics of the other families in Maycomb. Aunt Alexandra gives Atticus her opinion that he should make us learn about the subject of out ancestry. He thinks about her opinion and he says yes but the only thing he gats is to Scout cry.
The case of Tom Robinson and the role of Atticus as his defense lawyer make us the objects of whispers and glances whenever we go to the town. Scout asks Atticus what rape is and the subject of us going to Calpurnia's church comes up. Aunt Alexandra then tells Scout that she cannot go back to the church next Sunday because Calpurnia is a bad influence for the kids. Aunt Alexandra tries to convince Atticus to get rid of Calpurnia because they don't need her any more but, Atticus refuses because he thinks that they still need her. Scout gets very angry and attacks me. Atticus brakes up the fight and send us to bed. Scout hears something under her bad and she calls me in her room to see what's under her bed and we discover that Dill is hiding under Scout's bed.
Dill tells his story why he came back and why. He said he run away from his house because his mom and his new dad never pay him any attention at all. He took a train from Meridian to Maycomb Junction fourteen miles away and covered the remaining distance by walking and going at the back of a cotton wagon. When his finish telling us the story I go and tell Atticus that Dill had run away and that he was at Scout room. Atticus tells Scout to go bring more food than just a pan of cold corn bread for Dill because he was very hungry this day. After Dill eats and then we all go to bed to go to sleep. Dill goes to my bed to go to sleep but after 10 minutes he got off my bed and then climbs to Scout's bed to talk about a lot of things.
