THE RUFFETT CHAPTERS: Jackson Walker

I doubt he will read this so I'm not concerned. My mom thinks he's a bully. Well, was a bully. We're not exactly friends anymore. Was he? Nah. He may have been bulliish but he wasn't a bully. He was just being Jackson. He was just being a kid. When I met my best buds Scott, James, Jackson, and Peter at Bedford Park I had not realized how I had stolen Scott from Jackson. Jackson and Scott had been best buds before I had known them. So yeah, I can understand if he was a bit jealous of me and how he was hoping that I might disappear so he could have his best friend all to himself again. Sorry, Jack.

But as the years went by I think he realized that I was a cool dude even if he didn't always show it. Probably thought I was more wacko though and that I probably should be avoided sometimes. But I was the snack guy. I brought snacks. He didn't ask me, I just had snacks and I was willing to share. Yes, Jackson took advantage of me but I let it happen. I still don't think he bullied me.

Besides, how can I hate the guy now? His parents got divorced when he was quite young and I think after you lose your family like that you never go back.

So Jack, if you read this. No hard feelings.
