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.
