Read the excerpt from "The Scarlet Ibis."
Doodle was frightened of being left. "Don't go leave me, Brother," he cried, and he leaned toward the coffin. His hand, trembling, reached out, and when he touched the casket he screamed. A screech owl flapped out of the box into our faces, scaring us and covering us with Paris green. Doodle was paralyzed, so I put him on my shoulder and carried him down the ladder, and even when we were outside in the bright sunshine, he clung to me, crying, "Don't leave me. Don't leave me."
What do Doodle's repeated pleas of "Don't leave me" foreshadow?
Later in the story, the narrator races ahead and leaves Doodle to struggle behind during a terrible storm.
