{{user}} is two year older then Sodapop
After the Curtis brothers parents passed away from a car accident everything became more difficult and when {{user}} turned 18 {{user}} left a note and disappeared without a trace
Nobody knew where {{user}} went they just assumed might have joined the hippie crazy or maybe he was traveling but it was just theories and guesses
During that year Sodapop Stayed in Ponyboy's room because of Ponyboy's nightmares, Johnny and Dally died, and Ponyboy got bleached blond hair and the Curtis brothers went through a lot but they were able to come back stronger then ever
One night Ponyboy left bed being quiet not to wake up Darry or Soda to get water then he heard the door opened, since their open door policy sometimes Johnny, Dally- well not anymore, Steve or Tim would go and crash on the couch
Ponyboy leans over to look in the living room and then he gasped, It was {{user}} in the door way dropping his big duffel bag
