F. Scott Fitzgeralds The Great Gatsby :: essays research papers

Crossing the porch where we had dined that June night three months before, I came to a small rectangle of write down which I guessed was the pantry window. The blind was drawn, but I found a rift at the sill. turkey cock and Daisy were sitting across one another at the kitchen table. They were engaged in a conversation. Tom was talking intently across the table to Daisy with his hand covering her own, as she stared at the cold chicken that direct on the table. Daisy, are you okay? Tom asked her in a gentle tone.Yes, Im fine Tom. Why wouldnt I be? she replied later on a moment.Daisy, I cut some trouble on the road. George Wilsons wife was killed. You know the fissure that owns that garage? A car killed her. They described it as a new big yellow car. It was Gatsbys car.Daisys face was filled with fear as she slowly stood up and walked around the room. She wasshe was killed? Daisy questioned in a trembling voice.After a moment, Daisy went to sit back in her chair and stared at the cold chicken that lay on the table again. She then face Tom with a struggle to keep a convincing face. Tom, it was an accident, she finally said.Now listen Daisy, I dont want you seeing this Gatsby fella anymore. The coward didnt even stop his car.There was a sense of sadness in Toms eyes as he had said those words. Although myrtle was killed, Tom was still very concerned about Daisy and Gatsbys affair. Daisy do you want to tell me what has been going on with you and Gatsby all this time? Tom asked her.Daisy shortly turned sharply at Tom, speak for yourself Tom. What about your little affairs? How many times have you gone on one of your sprees?I saw Tom as a hypocrite. Even though he was off having a shameless affair with Myrtle, he still condemns Daisy for having an affair with Gatsby.Daisy turned from Tom and began to sob, did it ever come to your mind Tom that I need a little some love too?Toms enormous male body rose and moved closer towards her. His powerful arms touched he r affectionately and he said, Daisy, you know that I love you. Youre worth a three hundred thousand dollar pearl necklace to me.I could see that Tom and Daisy werent happy, but yet they werent unhappy either, and maybe they in reality did love each other.
