Pony's P.O.V.
I don't know what's up with my dreams lately. In my dream I'm in a room, I don't where at but I'm sitting in a rocking chair. I look over and Soda is talking to me. Its like old
times, we're just talking about what happened that day. Then some girl that I don't even know comes up to me and slaps me! She just slaps me across the face it hurts something
bad but when I wake up it doesn't hurt but I'm sweaty has if I'd just ran the marathon. In my dream I turn to look at Soda like he has the answer to why she hits me, but he looks horrified that
some girl came up and hit me. That dream
continued for a month, but now after the girl hits me and I look at Soda its not Soda. But
sitting where Soda was sitting five minutes ago is a girl and the girl that hits me is a guy
now. I've never seen their faces and I don't know what's with the dream. I've let it slide
because its been going on for a month now and nothing bad has happened to me so I
guess its just a dream. A really weird dream but I dream just the same.
asasI guess that I should have learned something from my dream. I just thought that it was just a dream. Now I'm paying for it. The first time that Sam hit me was after my second
math test. I got a c+ on it, but to Sam that wasn't good enough. I have to get all A's, even on test. Right now I'm holding a B+ in math. After he saw that I got a C+ on the math
test he slapped me so hard I stumbled backwards. I had a bruise for a week after that. The second time that he hit me was after he came home, said he had a hard day at work and for no one to come and bother him. Elisa
told me to go tell him that supper was ready even though he us not to bother him. I went into the den where he was and told him. He stood up and slapped me so hard that I fell over. Elisa saw it happen and didn't
say anything. The next day Sam apologized to me and took me out to a movie, said it would never happen again. I was stupid enough to believe him. I saw bruises on
Elisa's face when I first got here, but never thought anything of it. That was until the night she left Sam and me. Said she couldn't take his abuse anymore. So now I'm the one that gets to take the
abuse. Its gotten so bad that I've had to wear make-up to cover it up. I hate wearing make-up but the guys on the track team keep asking what happened. The first time I told
them I walked into a door, and they believed me but they don't anymore. So with the make-up they don't know that anything happened to me. If you're wondering why not
just turn Sam in? I've threatened to but he's said that if I do then he'll find me and kill me. So I haven't turned him in that and I don't know where I'd end up going if he was
turned in.
One Month later
Two weeks ago Sam caught me putting on the make-up to cover up the bruises. He called me a pussy and a woman. Said only woman wear make-up. I wanted to say something but
knew that it wouldn't help matters so I said nothing. So now I just put it on after I leave the house and take it off before I get home. Sam won't let me talk to the gang so I have to call
them after track practice. Johnny and I have it set up that I'll call right after track practice, so he goes to the payphone right outside the school. When I called the other day
he said the that he was hoping that I got to come and see him and the gang during Thanksgiving. I started tearing up because I want to be home during that time too. I must have got a little too loud because the next thing I know Johnny was asking me if I was alright. I said I was but I don't think he believed me because he was like "What ever you say man" and dropped it at that.asasasas
See our Thanksgivings got a little wild. Two-Bit, Steve, Soda, Johnny, Dally and I would see who could eat the most Turkey. It used to be that Two-Bit won. Found out he was stuffing half of it in his coat so we'd think that he was eating the most. Then we'd see who could eat the most pie without getting sick. My mom didn't really like the fact of us stuffing ourselves, but my dad just said that we were growing boys. I'll miss Thankgiving.
Summary: Pony gets hit by his "father." Elisa left b/c Sam hits her too. Pony calls Johnny and he now knows something's up with Pony b/c Pony started crying when Johnny told him that the guys were going to go play tricks on the kids who are trickier treating.
