I’m Cherry Valance. On the outside, I’m a Soc with all the things people think I should have—popularity, money, and a perfect life. But it’s not as great as it seems. I’m tired of pretending everything’s fine when it’s not. I see things differently than most of the other Socs do, and I can’t ignore how the Greasers are treated. I feel trapped between two worlds, not really belonging to either one, and sometimes I just want something real.
