When I woke up I was really tired. It was getting dark too. I was really sad to not see Soda or anyone from the gang there, I thought Soda loved me. Maybe he had gotten called into work. No one really knew WHY I loved Soda so much. Except me.
I met Sodapop Curtis on a day when I really needed to. My dad had left my mother and me to fend for ourselves and he moved away somewhere. I was walking down the street when a boy walked up to me and said "What's wrong? Is it anything I can help you with?" This was the first person who had ever been sincerely nice to me. "Nothing, it's okay. My dad just left and I've got no stuff and..." I started crying. He asked me if I wanted to come to his house and told me that his older brother, Darry, would make me something to eat and give me some clean clothes. Sodapop Curtis was my hero, and I had loved him ever since. And not loved him like a brother, I mean I REALLY love him which it was sad for me to see him flirting with that Summer girl.
I went home, and when asked where I had been I replied with, "With Sodapop, Mom." She didn't mind then, because she likes Sodapop. It's that Dallas boy that she doesn't like. He robbed dad once. Dad wasn't very happy about it either. Mom didn't mind the rest of the boys though.
At dinner, My mother questioned me on why I had a black eye. That stupid Summer, I though, she had to punch me in the face. I told my mom I had walked into a pole. It was all I could think of. My mother laughed when I told her that and said "Oh Jay, you can be such a clutz sometimes!" And I went to bed.
