I am the most terrible person I know. I don't know what I was thinking. Ponyboy came home at, what, 2 in the morning I think it was, which was hours later than he was supposed to be. Another hour and we would have called the police. I started to scream at him and holler at him for coming back so late - I guess that was my first mistake. Sodapop tried to stop me, but I just shoved him aside - I guess that would be my second. My third and (hopefully) last mistake was that I had hit Ponyboy real hard when he tried to defend Soda. Looking back, I guess there was really no reason for Pony not to run away.
I feel that it's all my fault. I mean, I was the one who screamed at Ponyboy, I was the one who shoved Sodapop and I was the one who hit Ponyboy 'cross the face real hard. Now that I think about it, I guess it was my fault for bein' so hard on him. I don't know when he'll be back, or if he'll be back at all. Hopefully he comes back to his senses and comes back home, or we'll all be in a whole bunch of trouble. I just hope he's not hurt. In any case I hope he doesn't go back to that park. He might get jumped by some Socs and they might try to drown him in the fountain or something.
