Ponyboy Curtis remembered a lot of things, but for some reason couldn't remember the day his parents died.
His parents were still alive, so he couldn't have gotten drunk. He hadn't been sick that day, and so he couldn't have been sleeping. Hadn't been outside with Johnny, or at school, or at the DX... It was just one big blur. Couldn't remember the day, only what happened when he got home. Which was weird.
Why was it the things he wanted to remember he forgot, and the things he wanted to forget he remembered?
