To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

Mayella makes a pass at Tom (hits on him), hugging him and trying to kiss him. Tom tries to get away without hurting her. In the meantime, Bob Ewell looks in the window and sees what is happening and says, “You goddamn whore, I’ll kill ya.” Tom runs, explaining that he ran because “if you was a nigger like me, you’d be scared too.” ................
