“Soda, ok, u can come in now.” Ponyboy grinned. I was standing volgende to him, and he was volgende to Mickey Mouse.
With the money that I would have gone to college with, and with what Ponyboy had saved, we had bought Soda his horse.
Soda came in, in his plaid overhemd, shirt and jeans. His jaw dropped. Then he smile brighter than the sun.
He walked over to horse.
“Hey buddy,” he says, smiling, petting his nose.
“It took forever to get him to listen,” Ponyboy said.
“Yeah, I got myself and ornery pony.” Soda grins.
“You happy?” u ask Soda.
He just looks at you, smiles and nods his head.

u were actually close to Soda. Danny played with Grace and Logan all the time. u couldn’t even begin to imagine how they felt.
u hear the front door open. Darry was home pagina now. u take another deep breath, and sit at the keuken-, keuken table.
Just breathe.
He walks into the kitchen. “Hey babe, what’s wrong?” He asks, setting down his wallet and keys.
u swallow. “I got a call.” Is all u manage to say.
“About?” He asks, eyebrows raised.
“Soda’s dead.” u blurt out.
The look on Darry’s face would haunt your memory for the rest of your life.
He just sat down on the floor in pure shock, mouth open, eyes wide.
