The girl is startled and a little scared. The girl calls him a hood,

That didn't make me feel so hot. These were a lot of Socs in that class--- I get put into A classes because I'm supposed to be smart--- and most of them thought it was pretty funny. I didn't, though. She was a cute girl. She looked real good in yellow.

This shows Pony to be a sensitive boy and nothing like the stereotype that the girl thinks he is.
