Summary
Keith was tired.
He was tired of the long nights spent reeling over a bottle of booze. He was tired of checking on his friends when he was never checked on. He was tired of failing every test at school even when he really tried, because he was just so dumb. He was tired of his sister receiving another new pair of shoes for her birthday when Keith had been wearing the same boots for three years. He was tired of Ponyboy asking him to go to the movies only after he’d already asked Johnny, Dally, Sodapop, and even Darry. He was just so tired.
