"Yeah that's what I mean." Steve said
"Ok. So how long have you known Rick?" Frances asked
"I've known him for the past ten years." Steve said
"That's a long time. Have you ever seen Mr. Moss loose his temper?" Frances asked

"I've known him for four months. I met him when I came over for supper." Steve said
"Have you ever seen Mr. Curtis get him by Rick?" Frances asked
"Never! Rick would never hit anyone." Steve said mad about asked that
"Ok sorry didn't mean to upset you. Now is there any reason to believe that Mr. Moss would hit Mr. Curtis?" Frances asked

"Because he hit me." Sandy said
"No more questions." Frances said
She wasn't supposed to say that but Sandy decided that she was going to tell the truth.
"Your turn counselor." Judge Toby said
"Thank you your honor. Sandy how long did you date him before he stated to beat you?" Rose asked
"It was a couple of months into our relationship." Sandy said

Two-Bit's POV
As I was walking out of the court room I thought I saw Darry. I must have seen someone how had looked like him. Don't know what's up with me. I thought I saw him on the was in too. I got to stop wishing he'd show up for Pony's sack.
The guys went out to lunch and then headed out to the court house. Two-Bit couldn't stop thinking how the guy really looked like Darry. He didn't pay much attention when Tom
Well and John Saww were up on the stand. He saw that the guy left five minutes before court was dismissed for the day. Since Rose had said that he's be taking the stand tomorrow he decided to see if it was in fact Darry.
Court was dismissed and everyone left for the day. Two-Bit didn't tell anyone because he wanted to make sure that it was in fact Darry first.
