CHAPTER 2

The brother's Ponyboy and Dally along with Jonny went out together to a drive-in movie but suddenly they saw two super cute girls and big brother Dally started to tease them with some rude words. The girls were named Cherry and Marcia who was also called Socs were sisters. They were very afraid of Dally's behavior, who was already a little drunk. The younger brother Ponyboy Curtis stood up for them and made his brother behave. At that moment the two sisters, 14 and 16 years old, had confidence in the young boy and established a dialogue. The four of them stayed in the drive-in theater talking and watching the movie. They told them that they had come with their enemies but that they were upset because they had brought alcohol. For this reason, they were alone. Suddenly the fifth member of the gang, Two-Bit Matthew, arrived and frightened his friends. He made them believe that he was a member of the SOCS gang because he is a good voice imitator. You never know if Two-Bit is drunk or sober as he acts like a drunk sometimes even when he is sober. He even makes his jokes all the time and that's how he started a dialogue with Marcia by teasing her about how he is with his friends Ponyboy and Jhonny. Marcia jokingly told him that they are thinking about kidnapping his friends. Jhonny interrupted saying that they defended them from Dally because he was molesting them and then invited them to stay with them.  After a moment they asked about big brother Dally who hopefully isn't doing anything wrong so he can end up in jail. Since Two-Bit informed his friends that Dally is in trouble for breaking the tires of Mr. Timothy Shepard who saw him. He then tells them that they will have to settle it with a knife fight as the rules with the Sherpad's are. Although Cherry and Marcia don't agree, they are informed that there is a strong bond between the gang but also rules that if broken there will be consequences. At one point Cherry and Ponyboy went out together to buy a coke. There was a long line so they started talking. Cherry asked him if his friend Jhonny was okay because he seemed scared. That's when Ponyboy starts to tell her why Jhonny seems like a scared and dangerous person. He says that almost four months ago Jhonny was found about to die because he had been beaten up by the other gang called the Socs. Jhonny was badly cut from the blows of the Socs who used rings. Soda, Dally, Two-Bit, and Ponyboy managed to rescue him but from that day on he always carries a 16-inch razor for protection and Cherry told him that not all Socs are like that. Cherry said that even the Socs, despite having a lot of money, also have problems. At that point, they went back to the drive-in. Ponyboy knew that Jhonny liked Cherry even though he didn't like girls much because he was too shy and didn't have a good experience. Ponyboy in his poensamineto stated that even though the Socs had a lot of problems they were very fortunate to have good grades, good cars, good girls.
