After they got "engaged", Tom made the mistake of mentioning that he used to be with another girl, Amy Lawrence. Becky is afraid that Tom still likes Amy - maybe better than her - and gets mad at him.
"No, I'll never love anybody but you, Tom, and I'll never marry anybody but you--and you ain't to ever marry anybody but me, either." "Certainly. Of course. That's _part_ of it. And always coming to school or when we're going home, you're to walk with me, when there ain't anybody looking--and you choose me and I choose you at parties, because that's the way you do when you're engaged." "It's so nice. I never heard of it before." "Oh, it's ever so gay! Why, me and Amy Lawrence--" The big eyes told Tom his blunder and he stopped, confused. "Oh, Tom! Then I ain't the first you've ever been engaged to!" The child began to cry. Tom said: "Oh, don't cry, Becky, I don't care for her any more." "Yes, you do, Tom--you know you do."
Becky got mad at Tom Sawyer because he had been flirting with other girls, which made her feel jealous and neglected. She might have also felt that Tom was not paying her enough attention or showing her enough respect.
He caught her looking at a medical textbook belonging to the teacher, and she accidentally tore a page when he startled her. Later, he told the teacher that he had done it and took the whipping that should have been Becky's.
