What I was Feeling at Tom and Myrtle's Apartment
Honestly, I was not very surprised when I found out that Tom was having an affair. He was the type of man who would cheat on his wife with someone outside of his social class. I was kind of surprised that Tom dragged me along with him and Myrtle when he knew Daisy was my cousin. On the way to wherever we were going he even stopped and bought her a dog because she wanted one. A DOG! We got to the apartment and they started calling to people to come over. I felt uncomfortable around these people, so I got drunk even though I don't drink. There was nothing better to do and by the looks of it I was going to be there a while. It was weird seeing Tom with people outside of his social class and I couldn't believe he was spending time with these people. Catherine, Myrtle's sister, started rambling on about how Tom didn't like Daisy and Myrtle didn't like George. I would surprised by the lie that Daisy was Catholic, this was just a cover up Myrtle started talking about why she had married George and what a mistake it was. Around midnight things started to get bad. Myrtle was in Tom's face repeating,"Daisy, Daisy, Daisy", until finally Tom punched her and broke her nose. I was so shocked I couldn't believe it, but nobody would stand up to Tom. After that, it was all over and I went home.
