It was a quiet night in the valley of ashes. There is a small light came from the window of George Wilson Garage. The light came from his room and he just sat his chair, look at the dog-leash that Mrytle left at the drawer of the desk. His feelings was complicated. He was upset, regrade, and also mad. He kept thinking about his wife, Mrytle.
He was thinking, how Mrytle could get that expensive dog-leash. As we know, they were not that rich to bought it. And the most important questions in his mind, what was that for? They didn’t have any puppy or pet. What is that mean? His head was full of questions. He kept thinking all night until he fall a sleep in his office room.
Next Morning, when he woke up, he found an envelope right beside him on the desk. He tried to look around, but nobody was there. He look at the cover’s envelope and it say “to Mr. Wilson”, nothing else. His face turn white and he didn’t feel good when he read it. He just look at it for almost thirty minutes before finally he open and read it.
“Dear Mr. Wilson”
I feel so sorry for your wife’s died. Nobody know that it’s going to happen. That was an accident. I hope you can accept it and just let her go.
But there is something about your wife that I thought you should know. Your wife used to have a relationship with your own friend, Tom Buchanan. That was start since eleven months ago, but you never release it. She was disappointed of you and at the same time, Tom came and that feeling was begin.
I think I already did my job to telling you the truth about your wife. Once again, I tell you this just so you know about your wife and nothing hide.”
He turn the letter and he found a picture of Tom and Daisy in New York City. He was surprised. He never thought that his wife would cheat with his own friend. He was getting mad, her grab a paper bag that located in the corner of the room and left.

In the west egg, Daisy and Gatsby spent time together beside the swimming pool. The romantic music played from inside the house. That morning was a good time for them.
***
Tom Buchanan didn’t feel good that day so he stayed at home, lay down on his comfortable sofa, enjoy the bird sing from the outside.
“knock..knock..knock” the front door was knocked..
Tom ignored it and kept staying in the sofa.
“knock..knock..knock” now the door knocked harder..
He finally stand and walk to the door. When he opened the door, George was standing there with really unhappy face.
“Hey, what is going on? Why you come here? Anyway don’t you know how to be poli...” before Tom can finish his sentence, George push him towards the floor.
“Hey, what do you think you just did??!”
“Just shut your mouth! I don’t need to hear anything from a lier like you!” George yelled at Tom.
“ What are you talking about George? What is wrong with you today?!”
“You ask what’s wrong with me?! How dear you Tom! How dear you cheat with your own friend wife!”
Tom’s face turn red. “Mm, what are you talking about George? Haha, of course not George. You are my friend, how could I did that to you.”
One, two, three, then George just shoot Tom right in his chess. Tom was falling to the ground and blood came from his chess. Tom’s daughter and her baby sitter run outside to saw what’s going on.
“Daddy,,daddy” his daughter cried and hug his body in the floor, but Tom was died. “Daddy wake up..daddy”
She turn around and saw George standing there with gun in his hand. “What did you do with my daddy?! You kill him! You are a killer!! You are a killer!”
George didn’t say anything, he just stand there like a statue.
***
George entered to the jail because he murdered Tom. Daisy’s feeling was complicated, she was mad cause he know that Tom cheat with Myrtle and she also felt guilty of Mrytle’s died. Gatsby was shocked because everything that happen was really complicated.
Nick who actually wrote the letter for George Wilson, keep hiding that secret for his self. He never imagined that George would killed Tom. The situation in that time was really complicated, feelings between Gatsby, Daisy, Tom, Mrytle and George also his conflict with Jordan.
***
Gatsby and Daisy finally get married. They lived in Gatsby’s house in west egg. Jordan move to Illinois and became a really famous golf player. Nick also moved to New York City and began his new business. He never came back again, the memories about Tom and everything still stuck in his mind.
