For chapters 7 and 8 of the Outsiders, I decided that the word friendship is appropriate. I chose this word because in these chapters, the gang gets really close and they show their concern for each other. They respect each other and they care for each other like brothers. For example, Johnny was in the hospital because of his attempt to save the children in the burning church and the gang goes to visit him. They say show their friendship towards each other by sticking together and appreciating that they have each other. So, friendship is the word I chose.
