Strangers In The Dumpster

Sunshine was pouring out from in between the buildings, casting shadows all around Ponyboy and the gang as they walked to Pony’s school. They were taking their time walking down the streets and for the first time they all were really seeing what was all around them. Memories were surfacing in their minds showing them what it all meant to them. With every step they took on the sidewalk they remembered a different memory as if they were walking down memory lane.

Sure enough, all his mother does is nod. “A mother’s love for her child should be unconditional,” she says. “And the others?”

“Good. I saw my daughter and she has a son. I also met her husband. Thank you Mi Patron for letting me see my daughter.”

“Daniel has nothing to do with this and you are fucking right I’m not your damn wife. You can bang whoever the hell you like Alex.” The glass shook in her hand as she struggled to not throw it at him. How dare he ask her about Daniel, as if the man cared

“I want you to look at her and tell her you no longer want to be a part of our lives because she’s not worth living for.”

Cullen scooped me to his chest, pushing me against the brash metal of under armor. The sheer weight of him had grown immense.

“You’re the one taking her away. You abuse her. You accuse and belittle her! Shoot, you’re just a sick fuck who needs to be taught a lesson!” I spat at the man as I narrowed my eyes. He narrowed his own. He raised his gun and I backed away slowly.

“It doesn’t matter if you like him or not,” Ariana hissed, keeping Monster from running away by holding onto her arm. “Don’t you believe it’s wrong to harshly insult someone about their deceased mother?”

“I know you are a good for nothing fallen angel who tried to seduce my girlfriend!” Erich’s eyes shifted to me searching for any sort of concurrence.

“You know we were never a thing, Harrison. I love Anja and nothing you say or do will change that.”

“Now wait, we are only asking the necessary questions, and want answers. Did your daughter have a good relationship with her grandmother?” He was so adamant that she sat back down and waited until he continued. He waited for her response.
