Chapter 3: Second Chance.
It was Friday morning, Pony had been ill during the last two days. While Soda and Darry where having their breakfast before going to work, the young boy appeared in the kitchen.
"Hey mate" -Soda said to his young brother-"How are you feeling?"
"Quite better" -He answered sitting next to him.- "Can I ask you for a favour?"
"Sure"
"I need you to go by the school when you finish your work and ask for my homework"
"Take it easy chap! You have the entire year to study hard"
"It's not such a bad idea if he is feeling better" -Interfere Darry-
"Let him relax a little, ok? He needs to rest."
"He suggested, not me" -groaned Darry on his defence.-
"Wont you both stop arguing please? I can think by my own so I don't need you to decide for me, right?"
Both looked at him remaining silent.
"I do want my homework" -Ponyboy continued- "I've been closed here during the last two days and I'm about to get completely mad, I've read all the books I have left, I'm sick of watching talk-shows, all I need is something to do a part from nothing, I'm fed up being here just looking, till some of the gang shows up."
"Ok, ok I understand you" But he didn't, he had never understand the passion of his two brothers with studies, but he knew how important was for Pony so he accepted- "I'll drop by the school after work."
"Thank you"
"You're welcome" -said Soda with resignation.-
And that she did, when Soda finished working reject Two-Bit's invitation to go out to drink something and picking up some chicks, and went to the school. On the hall he sow a group of young girls looking at him chatting and smiling Some things never change he thought, remembering his days there. He went directly to the information desk.
"Sodapop Curits" -Said the woman on the desk, she still remembered him- "What are you doing here?" -She asked then.-
"I'm looking for my brother's tutor."
"Ok! Let me see…" -She looked at the computer and typed something on the keyboard.- "I have it, She is Mss. Tarantino, her office is on the third floor, door number 10."
"Thanks Rachel."
He went up the stairs to the 3rd floor, once there he looked for door 10, he found it at the end of the wide corridor. On the door he could read Mss. Tarantino. He knocked the door and waited few seconds.
"Came in" -A voice said from inside, he opened the door and get into.-
He saw the young woman sitting on a large desk and typing something on her computer, at first he couldn't believe his eyes, She was the girl on the DX weeks before!

I know it's a bad moment to stop it… but I want to maintain the intrigue, and also I wouldn't make the chapter too long to read… je,je. I hope you all enjoy it.
