Disclaimer: I finally own something! I own Mr. Scoldman but nothing else (so far)
Chapter 5- It Finally Happened"I'm sorry Darrel, but we're going to have to take Sodapop away from you."
I was sitting in my room in total shock. Even though I couldn't see him, I knew Darry was too. He didn't say anything, but I knew he was having mixed feelings.
" I'll be back for him tomorrow." Mr. Scoldman said.
He let himself out (probably because Darry was now glaring at him). After he left, I came out of my room staring at Darry. I think that he knew I knew. I spoke first though.
"Darry? Are we gonna be okay?"
" I don't know kid. I just don't know."
"Should I go with him?" I asked.
"You're gonna have to Soda."
I was really mixed up now. Did Darry honestly want me to go and live with some other family? No, he couldn't. He wouldn't. Would he?
"Darry… come on Dar. Come on. There has to be another way. Please."
There was a certain hint of urgency in my voice that I think Darry noticed. I started crying in spite of myself. Darry looked up in surprise. It was the first time he had looked at me since Mr. Scoldman had knocked on our door and ruined our lives.
"Hey, don't cry Pepsi-Cola. We'll be okay. Come here."
I tried to stop crying but ended up crying all the more because I couldn't stop. So for the rest of the night, Darry just held me and we savored the last night we had together.
A/N: Why are these chapters so short! It is starting to annoy me! Oh well. Please review to tell me what you think.
