What I was feeling as I was Driving Home....

After Tom and Gatsby got into their argument, I felt so anxious. I did not know what to do. On one hand, Tom had been my husband for five years. We had kids together and it was what I was used to. I was afraid of change. But then on the other hand, Gatsby had always been the one that I wanted. I knew I had to choose what I wanted and I was having a hard time because I was afraid to lose the life I had with Tom but at the same time Gatsby had been the one that I had wanted and should have waited for. I felt so confused, lost, and in some ways I felt alone. I did not want to pick the wrong choice. My mind was all over the place and I was driving too quickly. Before I could stop, a women came running towards my car. I did not have enough time to stop. I had a vivid memory of the look on that poor women’s face as she flew over my car. I was in so much shock and I was afraid that I could not stop. I had to keep going because I was afraid of what I had done. Gatsby was trying to comfort me as much as he could, but I was a mess. I was afraid of what I had done and what kind of person I had seemed to become.
