What is Scout's status after the incident with cousin Francis?
Scout gets extremely upset at Francis's comments and attempts to hurt him, but Francis manages to run away. Although Scout is not fully aware of the meaning of "n1**3*-lover," she understands that it is a negative term.
Using short sentences makes the author sound rude. using run-on sentences makes the author seem super talkative. I suggest use medium length sentences to set the tone.
