STEP-UP to Writing

HW
RJ 4.3
T.O.  p.167-180


Today, we talked about chapters 10 and 11. Ponyboy gets a ride from a stranger and goes home and every one is in the living room. Soda, Darry, and Two-Bit are hurt, and Ponyboy tells every one that Johnny is dead. Soda was about to start crying, Two-Bit clenched his teeth, and Dally started to punch the wall because Johny was the only thing left that he had, but he's gone. Dally robbed a grocery store and the cops were after him. He stopped and the police got out of their cars. Dally gets his heater out and then the police start to fire. Dally and Johny are dead :( .
