I was asked by Jordan, who was asked by Gatsby, for me to
ask Daisy over to my home for lunch. Why Gatsby wouldn't just tell me that
himself I will never know. I thought it was strange that I was the one who had to
do this, but I went along with it. I felt like in a way this was going behind
Tom's back, but I didn't care. Tom was having an affair with another woman
anyway, and Gatsby and Daisy just wanted to have lunch together. I wondered if
Gatsby and Daisy had known each other before, but I figured they hadn't since
they needed me to set up this arrangement. When Gatsby had arrived he seemed
frantic and very nervous. I don’t understand this, he had all his staff come
over and make the house look nice and stock it with food and brought in all
these beautiful flowers. Everything look amazing, he should have nothing to
worry about. When Daisy got here you would have thought all hell had broken
lose, all of a sudden things didn't look right and the house wasn't nice enough
and there weren't enough flowers. I had to calm Gatsby down and once he locked
eyes with Daisy he instantly calmed down. It was like he was mesmerized in her
eyes and couldn't look away. At this moment I knew without even asking they had
a long past, and had a lot of catching up to do. I decided to let them discuss
by themselves. When I came back they were hanging on to one another's every
word. The way Gatsby looked at Daisy was the way she deserved to be looked at.
At that moment I was happy that I gave them the chance to reconnect and find
the love that they had for one another again.
Nick, I can never thank you enough for what you have done for me. You brought the love of my life and I back together again, which is not a small task that should be overlooked. Through these past months, you have become my closest and most trustworthy friend. I will never forget the kindness you have shown me.
ReplyDeleteYour friend,

Thank you, Nick, for doing me a favor. When I asked you to have tea time with both Daisy and Gatsby, I slightly doubted that you would do this for me, and for Gatsby and Daisy. I am also glad that you saw the sincere love that Gatsby has for Daisy. What Gatsby told me at his party a few nights ago was unbelievable. He genuinely is still in love with Daisy, and I believe that Daisy deserves to have another chance. Tom is definitely having an affair with someone and Daisy has suffered from it. You would be a perfect person for both Gatsby and Daisy. They need someone like you, who cares about the people around them. Thanks again for doing this for us, and let me know if you want to talk about something. How about having lunch tomorrow afternoon? You know my number, so call me during lunch time at work. I might be somewhere close to your work place because I don’t have any competitions this week.
