There’s a colored piece of paper, red his favorite color.
Hey Soda! We went on a trip to the dx (the oughta should have let me go on your shift but they ain’t ‘cus it was “too late.” Uh, I miss you. And Darry, I miss you and Darry a real lot. I hope you’re doing ok. I even miss Steve and Two-bit, even Steve, and not even a little! It’s like I miss him a real lot Soda! It’s ok though, I’ll be out real soon. Promise. Until then, me and Johnny are here, and we love you, and I miss yer’ Pepsi.
(P.s Darry left his reading glasses here. You should tell him that.)
(Dog Whistle au this is so stupid I fear sorry
Sodapop takes the slip of paper out, noticing the vibrant color before reading it thoroughly. His face lights up once he learns it's from Ponyboy, and writes back quickly on the back side.
Awh gee, Ponyboy. I sure hope you're doing okay. I dunno when you'll all next be showing up, but me and Dar sure do miss ya.
Also hoping the clinic isn't treating you bad any, I'd sure hate to hear it's been bad in a place meant ta help ya.
And I'll be sure to let him know! He's been lookin' everywhere for those things this morning. Got him caught up in a mess just tryna read the papers!
He draws a silly face, before placing the red paper into the jar.
