June 2nd, 1826
Dear Dorothy,
I am actually glad that I've changed my mind and joined you all yesterday. I helped me understand some things more clearly, but also made some things even more unclear to me. On one hand I thought it was odd that William, even though Eleanor was beside him the whole time, kept seeking for my attention. He simply couldn't take his eyes off of me since the moment I entered the room. Even though I tried to ignore him and didn't even speak to him, it got to a point where he would say anything to catch my attention. And it wasn't just the words, he threw a scrunched little piece of paper, just so I would turn to him and ask him "Why would you throw that?", but he wouldn't say anything, he just looked me in the eye and smiled at me so childishly. Isn't that odd? On the other hand I realised there might be a chance of him having some kind of feelings for me. Maybe I'm right, maybe not. What do you think? Please just be honest with me, I don't want to be fooled by delusions.
Love,
Lotte
