Why I let everyone believe that Jay Gatsby was driving the car that killed Myrtle......


I was terribly upset the day that I hit Myrtle.  Things were very confused in my head.  I was so sure that I wanted to leave Tom for Jay until Tom told me how Jay got his money.  Everything got mixed up, and I just wanted to get away.  I suddenly realized that I would be lost without Tom.  That’s when Myrtle ran in front of the car.  I didn't have any choice but to hit her.  Right away, Jay said he would take responsibility and let everyone think he was driving.  I thought that was a great idea because I wouldn't have to worry about the situation anymore.  I figured that Tom and I could leave town for a while until everything quieted down.  People already talk about Jay and say he’s done questionable things, so they will all believe he was driving.  Jay has friends who can help him get out of trouble too, so I know it will be fine.  He can take care of himself.

  1. You're right i can take care of myself. but from now on there's no us, you chose tom over me and put me in this situation. we all know it was your fault and i took the fall. for one reason only, because i love you and you needed me to do it
