My name is Darrel Curtis but my friends called
me Darry but I am also known as “Superman” by my gang. I am twenty-years-old, the oldest of the
Curtis brothers and since my parents passed away I have been the one in charge
of my two brothers, Soda who is sixteen going on seventeen who has also been
helping the family some how and Ponyboy who is the youngest. My parents died on
a car accident a few years ago when my brothers and I were still very little. Since
then I had to take the responsibility of raising them. My brother Ponyboy says
that I am a young guy who grew up fast because of the fact that I am the one
who mostly does all the work in our family. In order to do that I had to quit many of the
things I did and instead I had to start working somewhere to get money. At the
beginning it was quite sad that I had to quit doing all the awesome things I
used to do including being captain of the football team and instead I had to
start working and doing all the housework.
I always wanted to go to college where I could be free of choosing who
to be. Even thought college sound like something fun it does not bring the enough
benefit in order to provide for a family of three teenager boys, so I had to
take the responsibility of working somewhere to get money. I worked for a
roofing company.
I am on the middle, Soda is the one on the the left and Ponyboy is the one on the right. (pixgood.com) |
