Oh my god! I don't know what I am gonna do. Remember yesterday when I told you that I was nervous that my Pa might do somethin' that he regrets? Well, he did. He went after them dumb kids that belong to Atticus. I am tryin' to stay calm but when I think about it my eyes start to tear up. Last night, my Pa left the house and went off to get revenge on Atticus an' now he's dead! Yep, that's right, my Pa is dead! I am tryin' to stay calm but my little siblings see me cryin' and they don't know why. I haven't told 'em yet. I just don't have the nerve to tell 'em. I don't wanna see their faces when I tell them that their Papa is gone. I just don't have the heart to do it.
I already had enough jobs to do around the house and take care of the kids, now what am I gonna do? Even though my dad was drunk most of the time, I still need him around to help me. I am really gonna miss him. I lost my mother and now I gotta loose my Papa too? What am I gonna do? I am now both mother and father to my siblings. I can't even get a job 'cause I am a woman, I gotta lotta cleanin' an' work 'round the house to do an' I need'ta take care of my family, cause their ain't no one else to do it. I am really at a loss of words. I dunno what I am gonna do but I'll find a way, I always do.

I don't mean to be mean, but i think that your dad deserved what happened to him. I am truly sorry that he is dead, but I am not sorry that I killed him. If I didn't step in then he would most certaintly killed those two kids. If you do need any help around the house just come by and ask. You know where you can find me.
