Scandal

Lydia eloped with Wickham!!! I am so angry at that girl! Does she know that she is on the verge of ruining the reputation of our entire family if she doesn't marry that man? I knew that Lydia was silly and shallow, but I never suspected that she could be this selfish. Jane received the letter that declared the news, and I can only imagine the awful reaction that my parents must have had. I have to hurry home as quickly as possible, and I must think of a way to explain my haste to the Gardiners. I am so angry and that disgusting Wickham and stupid Lydia!
