I was at home, baby-sitting my little brothers untill my parents got off work when I heard someone knocking on the door. I went and answered the door and there stood a woman with a brief case. She looked kinda uncomfortable being here.
"Are you Darrell Shayne Curtis Jr?" she asked.
"Yes, I am," I replied.
"I got some bad news, your parents will not be comeing home ever again," she said. Then she continued, "they were in a car accident on their way home", she said.
"What will happen to my brothers?" I asked her.
"The state said that we will hand custody over to you if you keep yourself and them out of trouble,"
she said, then she left.
I have custody over my little brothers, Soda, who is nine and Pony who is six. How was I going to take care of them and work both of my jobs? I found myself wondering.
"Hey, Soda, Pony, come here. I got to talk to you," I called to my brothers. I set both of them on my lap and sighed and said 'Mom and Dad ain't ever coming home."
"How come?" Soda asked.
"They died in a car wreck on the way home," I said.
Then both of my brothers started crying. I held them in my lap trying to calm them. Thats when Two-bit and Johnny walked in.
"Hi, Darry," they started then stopped, noticing that both of my brothers were crying. "Whats wrong?" Two-bit asked me. I sighed and told him and Johnny about what happened to my parents. They both said they were sorry and Two-bit came and took Soda and held him trying to calm him. then Johnny walked over and picked up my youngest brother, Ponyboy. He was telling him they were okay as he walked around holding Pony.
We finished what seemed like an impossible job. I took both of my brothers to my bedroom and laid them on my bed so they could sleep.
I walked into the liveing room, finding Soda and Johnny sitting on the couch and being very exhausted.
"Thanks for y'all's help," I said, giving them each a Pepsi.
"What are you goin' to do with them?" Johnny asked.
"I don't know," I admitted. "You have to work tomorrow and you can't just as well take the day off," Johnny replied.
"I know," I said.
"I'll watch Pony during the day and Soda will pick him up after school and come and help me out till you get off at eight," Johnny spoke.
