   Summary

   "And then, because he couldn't help it—because he had to know—Darry asked, 'You ever feel like you've done something before? Like…you've done this before?'

   'No,' Soda said slowly. He'd started rubbing circles on Ponyboy's back, but now he paused. 'I don't—what're you talkin' about?'"

    

   Or, Darry knows he hasn't been a perfect guardian (far from it). He's got plenty of regrets. So when he finds himself thrown backwards in time, reliving all his past mistakes, he realizes this might be his chance to fix things once and for all.

   Summary

   Darry Curtis gets real sad the first time he holds his baby brother.
   A sadness, inky and dark, that clings to Darry his whole childhood.

   Or maybe it's the envy of what his brothers get to do, how they get to live.
