I pulled my phone out of my purse and sent Cade a simple, Thank you, text. Dad walked through the front door and over to the table, as we ate breakfast we talked about how business was going at the gym. Mom was beaming from ear to ear with a smile, “You’re great at what you do. I’m so glad everything is going good, you worked hard to get to where you are.” I smiled, “I love helping the kids, some have such a low self-esteem it breaks my heart. They’ve learned they can talk to us about anything anytime.” Dad sat there quiet, “We can’t find him anywhere, it’s like he’s vanished. A couple of the guys have been to his parent’s house, his mom was tight lipped and lying through her teeth.” “Wow, do you think maybe those charges finally came through? Maybe he’s in jail?” Dad shook his head ‘no’, “Nope, his record is spotless, we’ve checked the jails too. His step daddy must have got the DA to drop

We closed the trucks and trudged to each side of the two trucks. I dropped down in the seat and stared out the open door before sitting up to tug my blond, curly, noodle like hair into a tight ponytail. I slammed my door closed and slid my seatbelt around my body. I let the sound of silence crash down on me like waves. The silence broke as my dad slammed his door closed. I gave him a quick glance before turning to the window and staring at the large tan building. “You ready, kiddo?” I could basically hear the smile on his face as he spoke. “If we’re being honest here, no” I snickered. He pats my head and started the car. The car roared before falling

"Hey, did you do it?" he asked. "Yes, and I expect to be paid in full."
“Are you done yet?” Sara said, attempting to rip us away from this beautiful moment. I understand now that she was trying to make sure I was safe, as I was talking to a stranger I had just met. I was still annoyed with her from the earlier confrontations we had. Her slight intoxication was another thing I didn’t want to deal with it.
“So what’s up? I haven’t talked to you since my baby shower!” I sipped my wine as I expressed,

Ponyboy and his two brothers, Darrel (Darry), who is 20, and Sodapop, who is 16, have recently lost their parents in an automobile accident.
