Do not own the Outsiders
"When you're hungry you could eat at the Dingo which is right over there" My Dad continued with his tour pointing at a medium sized restaurant painted blue
He continued on taking my brother and I all over the city of Tulsa and it amazes me. We live in the crummy east side of town and clearly there is a difference of social classes.
My Dad manoeuvred the car to a the near grocery store
"We even have to buy groceries?" My dear brother asked shocked
"He said it wasn't going to be easy" I told my brother shocked as well
Back at home we didn't have to do any of those we had a lady whom will do it for us
After a torturous hour we managed to get acquire all the necessities we would need for the weeks that would come
We all got in the car after we put the groceries inside the trunk of the car
I was needless to say tired and tomorrow it was going to be a rough day, with the new furniture coming
We made it home and as if a reflex I automatically turned to see if Ponyboy was outside with his criminal friends and he wasn't much to my dismay. So I continued to carry in the groceries and put them where they belong
"Excuse me I shall be my room" I told my Dad and left to go in the dullness of my room and laid in the old worn out mattress
I groaned on how uncomfortable it was but way more comfortable than the floor
I laid in the stillness and I felt my eyes burn with tears
Everything was so different here, but somehow it was better and I couldn't put my finger on what made Tulsa better.
I am not certain how long I laid because befor I knew it the sky was darkening and the sun was setting I smiled at the sight and decided to shower and go to sleep and sleep early because tomorrow is going to be one of the most tiring days that I will ever encounter.
The furniture was coming and I was not looking forward to it.
