I don’t know why we did it, or even how it happened. Our group recently split up because Jack and Ralph disagree on some important ideas, and there was getting to be a lot of tension. Ralph still wants to get rescued, but Jack seems to have forgotten that there is a world outside of the island. Jack called a meeting and asked for the boys to vote if they still wanted Ralph as chief. The did and Jack was very mad.

Ralph and I abhor what happened, but Piggy insisted that it was an accident. I really cannot believe that Simon is dead. It’s like that one movie…I can’t remember the name. Anyway, we murdered Simon. I mean, we didn't stab him, but we were there and didn't do anything to help him. I don't think about the old world too much anymore, but I know what happened is wrong, very wrong. We have to get off of the island
