It was the day of the rumble. Guest had specifically told Darry to not go this time. Normally Guest went to the rumbles, but he didn't go to this one because he just couldn't afford to go, being jumped and caught up in a shooting by socs not long ago, and still recovering.
of course Darrel just had to not listen.
The front door creaked open long after dark.
Darry stepped inside, shoulders tense, breathing heavier than normal. His white T-shirt was streaked with dirt, one sleeve torn, and dried blood darkened the corner of his mouth. A bruise was already forming beneath his left eye.
