Chapter 7 The GREAT GATSBY

In chapter seven, it was really awkward between all of the characters. I can’t believe what happened. Tom discovers what is going on between Gatsby and Daisy! He confronts Gatsby and witty as he is, he calls him “old sport”. Gatsby simply replies that Daisy is in love with him. They go to New York, and take separate cars. As Daisy witnesses Tom and Gatsby fight, she seems to be leaning more towards Tom. Tom tries to be tough and macho and sends Daisy home with Gatsby, just to prove that she does not love him or something like that. On the way home Daisy was driving and she hit Myrtle and killed her!!! I can’t believe this happened. OH THE IRONY. Anyways, Gatsby is going to take the blame for the accident, which is very chivalrous of him. We discover this while Nick and Gatsby are talking in Gatsby’s bushes; because Gatsby is keeping watch to protect Daisy. This chapter was more interesting for me to read. I really just can’t believe this happened. Gatsby is kind of sad and decides not to have parties anymore because of Daisy, which was the initial reason for his parties in the first place. I feel bad for him, and I just want Daisy and Gatsby to get together. L
