Reading response

This week I continued reading the book. Warning, this post may be a spoiler and ruin the book for you. In this week’s reading the main character Pony boy and his best friend Jonny try to run away from their family. When they are running they go through a park and get stopped by a gang of rich kids. In the story there is a war between the rich and poor kids and they have nightly street fights. When Johnny and pony boy got stopped in the park they get in to a street fight with a gang of rich kids. The rich kids start to drown pony boy in a fountain and Johnny gets scared and stabs the rich kid who was drowning pony boy in the back. The gang gets scared and runs away. The boys didn’t know what to do so they go to a teen ager who they thought knew what to do. When they get to the house where he is staying they asked him what they should do. He gives them a gun, $50, and a jacket. He tells them to sneak on the train that will take them to Windrixville. He says when you get to Windrixville go in to the abandon church and buy food and bring it to the church. He also said to live at the church and he would go pick them up when the police forget about them.
I would have never have done any of this if I were in the story I would have talked to who ever I was mad at and never run away.
Stay tuned and I will have more next week
