Assignment

Your Task: Rewrite the hospital scene where Johnny's mother comes to visit. In your version, the nurse does not turn her away, but lets her in the room. Imagine Johnny's reaction. What would Johnny's mother say to him? What would Johnny say to her?

You are writing part of a narrative, not a script. Sentences, punctuation, and paragraphs should appear the way it would in a book. Use the book or passage above as an example. Pay special attention to the dialogue and how the author starts a new paragraph each time she changes speakers.

       The Outsiders is a novel by S. E. Hinton set in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1965. This novel is about two gangs the socs and the greasers and there rival. I think that The outsiders should be allowed in the 8th grade.
      A couple reasons is that is explains where some people come from or came from. This has a valuable lessons to it. I think its a good book  because I like to know what it was like back then in 1960s. Some people say its a bad book because it has drugs in it when its talking about cigarettes not like weed. also like when they say get stoned they mean drunk. you just have to use ur brain and look close and stop and think. they say it has strong language or slang usage. who cares he said damit  twice guess what you act like you have never heard that word at home its the 21st century. the narrator of the story talks about how he don't even like to drink. Then theres violence who cares it don't describe how bloody shoots out and is pooring out his head and give every detail. the book has to have action some where.
          iits a good book and there for should be allowed at school. It is a really good book. I would have my kids read this book when ever they learned to read.

A nurse appeared in the doorway. “Johnny,” she said quietly, “your mother’s here to see you.”

Johnny opened his eyes. At first were wide with surprise, then they darkened. “I don’t want to see her,” he said firmly.

   “She’s your mother.”

    “I said I don’t to see her.” His voice was rising. “She’s probably come to tell me about all the trouble I’m causing her and about how glad her and the old man’ll be when I’m dead. Well, tell her to leave me alone. For once”-his voice broke- “for once just to leave me alone.” He was struggling to sit up, but he suddenly gasped, went whiter than the pillowcase, and passed out cold.

      The nurse hurried me out the door. “I was afraid of something like this if he saw anyone.”

  The nurse, after rudely rushing us out of the door, walked out and went up front again. I looked into the window and saw Johnny, as still as wood, and as silent as a sleeping baby. As soon as I turn around, the nurse comes up behind me with his mom.  Shoot! Even after he said no until he knocked out, she stabs him in the back.

    “Where’s my boy? Where, huh? Johnny!” she gasped, “Johnny, oh Johnny my baby!” She set her hands gently on his face, and seemed to cup his face in them. Then out of nowhere she snapped. “Damn you Johnny! You pathetic little –“ She wrapped her hands around his throat and choking him. The nurse slammed against her and wrapped her arms around her waist. She through her towards the door. Johnny was still out cold and Two-bit and I didn't know what to do.

A nurse came in said your mother is here to see you. My eyes got big I was so surprised I said "let her in" the nurse said "ok I’ll be right back". My mom came in the room and she was just standing there looking at me then she said "are you okay" I said "I guess so thanks what do u want" she said" I wanted to know what where you thinking u could have got killed". I was so confused it's not like she cared anyways. "why do u care", "I just wanted to know you where okay and to apologize for what I put you through. "why all of a sudden u care why didn't you care for me at first" I was just so mad I didn't even want to see her." I'm so mad at you right now I don't even want to talk to you" "I'm so sorry baby I just wanted to know that u where okay I know I haven't been a good mother and I'm sorry for that but I'm here now". "NO I don't want to talk to you anymore get out" but.. "NOW" his mom leave the room in tell the nurse to take good care of her son in she leaves the hospital . I was just siting there thinking should I have done that.

 
A nurse appeared in the doorway. "Johnny," she said quietly, " your mothers here to see you."
   Johnny opened his eyes wide at first but then his face went cold, then said "I don't want to see her," he said firmly.
"She is your mother." The nurse said with a worried voice.
    "I said I don't want to see her." his voice was rising at the nurse. "She's probably here to tell me about all the troubles I have caused her and the old man'll be when I'm dead. Well tell her to leave me alone .For once" -his voice broke and it was silent for a minute- then he said "for once just to leave me alone." "he was struggling to sit up, but he sat up after the fifth try to sit up.
The nurse said, "Well I will go let her in and give you some privacy to talk for a little bit then you can rest you have had a long day so far and I don't want you to get all worked up and stressed after your visit with your mother."
"I said I don't want to see her!" Don't you ever listen?" Johnny was furious.
Instead of answering Johnny she turned to open the door and walked out and told his mom that she could see him.

The Outsiders

“Hey Johnny”, Johnny’s mom says quietly.

‘Are you ok”, she said.

Johnny says” Why are you here, you never cared about me before”, he said.

She says “Johnny I’m sorry that I haven’t been there for you”, she said.

“You say that now, now that I might die”, Johnny said.

“Get out of here”, Johnny said.

So Johnny’s ran out the door crying and Johnny passed out cold

and Two-bit and Ponyboy leaves and Two-bit told Johnny’s mom

“You drunk your not Johnny’s mom you drunk”.

Two-bit started to cry and Ponyboy said “Come on Two-bit lets go”.

The nurse said “Johnny are you ok kid.”

Johnny was out cold for a couple hours.

But there was no sign of Johnny’s mom after he yelled at his mom.
