Why I decided to go to Gatsby's party that night

I had just moved to West Egg and I had known no one, I came to fond that my neighbor was Jay Gatsby who was known to have thrown extravagant parties. They always seemed to be great parties, but I never really understood how he knew all these people or where they all came from. For the first week I had only heard stories of the great Gatsby, he was a mystery and I was determined to figure it out. One day I got an invitation to one of these great parties, I decided to go because I wanted to figure Gatsby out and understand what his world was about. When I arrived to the party I was trying to find someone to give my invitation to, but there was no one. Throughout the night I came to realize that I was the only one who was given an invitation. Also throughout the night I searched for Gatsby, but she was nowhere to be found. This was so strange to me, where did these people come from, and why weren't they invited, who is this Gatsby? That night I finally got to meet the man, and wow was he different, there was something so calming about him and so sophisticated about him. I continued to go to his parties and have personal affairs with him during the day time. Gatsby became my one and only great friend, but little did I know that there was deep rooted history between him and my cousin Daisy.
