I don't own the Outsiders!
Chapter 7
I sat down at the table in the Curtis house and got out the stuff to write a letter. I was going to give Tim a piece of my mind…
Tim,
You are such a pain, I tell you what's on in town and with me and then you mess with me! Right now you are a solder Tim not a gang leader or a hood, you are a solder. Your mind needs to be focused on doing what you need to do to come back home. You can do this if you put your mind to it and stop worrying about me, I can take care of myself.
Look man, I would be out there with you if I hadn't been in that car wreck. I can't help you with this, but you better come back cause I ain't going to be the one to tell your brother and sister you ain't coming back…
-Dallas
I put it in the envelope and put it in the mailbox. Most people would like I was crazy telling Tim that he might die. He was smart enough to know that himself, but he needed a wakeup call, someone needed to remind him what he had to come back to and what he was fighting for.
Vietnam ain't a joke, and if you aren't careful you will get blown to pieces. The pictures we are getting in are nothing compared to what it really looks like and if I counted my days right Tim would be ready for war in a few days…
Sorry super short chapter! Please review :)
