Scarlet Curtis 2

Sabrina Matthews

I couldn't fall asleep.

Two-bit's my dad?

I wonder what Dixie looks like, hopefully she'll be excited I'm back.

Or maybe she doesn't want a kid.

Maybe she's happily married to
Two-bit and doesn't want a kid butting in.

What am I saying?

She had me for a reason obviously she must love me right?

I placed the papers back on top of the shelf and walked out of Darry's room.

Tiptoeing back to my room I hear, "What are you doing up?"

My heart froze as I slowly turned around and looked at the couch.

I didn't reply back.

He asked again, "What are you doing up, Scar?"

I looked over to see Dally was looking straight at me.

I asked him dumbly, "Don't you mean Sabrina?"

I watched as his eyebrows rose and he asked, "How'd you know that?

You weren't in Darry's stuff were you? Scar, your gonna be in big trouble."

I looked away from him and said, "Dal, I don't belong here. I need to get out.

Take me to Two-bit's house please. I will repay you if you do."

He didn't say anything, he didn't do anything. He just sat there calmly.

He finally said, "Why do you want to go with him? Your just gonna leave aren't you?"

I stuttered, "N-no I'm not."

He sat up while saying, "You hesitated."

I rolled my eyes and said, "Ok, fine. Maybe I don't know.

I just want to see him again. All these years I thought of him a member of the gang.

I thought he was one of those guys who comes and then takes off for another year.

But he only took off because he's my dad, and he couldn't bare to see me."

Dally said, "Scar-"

But I continued talking, "Why does he still come but doesn't want to see me?"

Dally said again, "Scar-"

But again I kept talking, "Why does Two-bit not care about me?

Didn't he used to care? He got a house and everything."

Dally said once more, "Scar-"

I asked, "What Dally what is it?"

A deep booming voice behind me said, "Scar."

I didn't turn around, because I know who's voice that is and I did not want to have to face him.

He continued talking, "Two-bit loves you very much but you remind him of his wife."

My mom I thought.

He finished his sentence, "His wife who is dead."

My heart felt like it broke.

First my adoption mom dies but I knew her and then I find out I'm adopted.

And that my birth mom has already died? We didn't even get to do anything.

As a tear slid down my cheek, I began to cry.

I turned around while Darry was standing there and I hugged him.

He said to me, "Scar, you are very special to this family and we just wanted to protect you."

I rubbed my eyes, but I kept on sobbing.

I said through the tears, "Darry, start calling me Sabrina. That's my real name."

I turned around heading up to my room where I cried myself to sleep.

The Next Morning...

I decided I would give everyone the silent treatment today.

Dally and Darry acted as if it were a casual morning.

Dally started hanging out with this guy in town his name is Buck.

As I hit the bottom step, something hit me like, like a vision.

{["Scarlet and Ponyboy Curtis were in the custody of Darrel Curtis, but now court thinks that was a mistake. They will be going to court again in two days to see what happens."]}

I remembered the life I had before the time travel life.

It was after the fire and when we saved those kids.

I remember when the news lady was telling our story.

But that fire was like two years after I was thirteen so we have a long time until that happens.

I walked into the kitchen and started fixing myself a peanut butter and jelly toast with eggs.

My favorite breakfast meal is anything that contains jelly.

I sat down at the dining room table and began eating.

Sodapop came in kissing my forehead and saying, "Mornin' Princess."

Like he does every morning.

I just kept eating and didn't say a word.

Soda looked up at me before eating his breakfast and asked, "Whats wrong?"

I didn't reply I just kept eating my breakfast like I was deaf or something.

Soda looked at me concerned and quickly got up going in the living room.

I could hear his whole conversation with Darry.

"Darry, what's going on? Why isn't Scar talking to me this morning?"

Darry whispered but I still heard him, "She found out who she is."

Soda asked, "Sabrina?"

Nothing else was said and the day went on as a normal day.
