Best Answer

Darry is a tough hard-working guy, who stands as the father of the ''family'' since their parents passed away. Sodapop is the care-free one of the family, while Ponyboy is the smart one who gets good grades. All three care about each other, and are considered good-looking. Ponyboy was originally not too fond of Darry since he treats Ponyboy like a child, but when Ponyboy returned home after running away for a week, he learns that Darry cares deeply about him. Sodapop, after he lost his girlfriend Sandy, became alittle more to himself.

How do Darry and soda react to ponyboy illness?

In contrast to this close loving relationship with Sodapop is Ponyboy's volatile relationship with his oldest brother, Darry. Pony and Darry are always at odds. Darry gets frustrated because Ponyboy "never thinks" and is always doing things that put the family's living arrangements at risk. Darry is the "father figure" since the death of the boy's parents. If they get into trouble the state agency will separate them. Darry is working two jobs to try to keep the family together and is hard on Ponyboy because he has to be. It isn't until the end of the novel that Ponyboy grows up enough to realize that Darry and he may not ever be close, but Darry really does love him.
