What I was thinking.... when Gatsby told me he wanted Nick to invite Daisy over for tea.

      In my head, after Gatsby said he wanted me to tell Nick that he wanted him to invite Daisy over for tea, I knew it was a bad idea. Well, it wasn't that bad of an idea. I just knew bad things would come from it. I knew that once Daisy locked her eyes on Gatsby things would go downhill, fast. I meant for Daisy and Tom, of course. It is not like I didn't want Daisy to see Gatsby, I just didn't want all the drama that was to come. As soon as Daisy would see Gatsby, I knew it was game over. I knew things would change immediately. To be honest, I couldn't see Tom in the picture anymore. All I could see was Daisy and Gatsby, living in his huge house in West Egg. And to be honest, I could see Daisy happy. A happy, free, careless Daisy. A Daisy that I haven't seen in a long time. Thinking on it though, it would take a long time to get to that happy place. We still have Tom in the picture, their marriage, and their daughter. I may be getting to a head of myself here. Who knows what will happen at this little tea party. They may see each other, talk for a little, leave and never speak to each other again. So many scenarios were running through my mind, I just did not know what was going to happen. I guess only time will tell.
