In Chapter 5, Gatsby finally reunites with the love of his life, Daisy. Gatsby is extremely anxious for the arrival of Daisy. He even sends a man to mow both his lawn and Nick's lawn. Gatsby is afraid that he won't meet Daisy's expectations and is worried that the 5 years spent separate have built a wedge in their love. When Daisy arrives, Gatsby disappears. However, Gatsby returns to meet with Daisy. Their first encounter is so awkward that Gatsby even knocks over Nick's clock. After 30 minutes, Nick returns to find the shadow of doubt completely gone. Gatsby and Daisy are staring at each other with a sense of radiance that overwhelmed anything Nick had ever seen. Gatsby invites Nick and Daisy over to his house where he proceeds to show them his extravagant home in hopes of impressing Daisy. Daisy is consumed with the luxurious home of Gatsby and all of her belongings. One question is why she begins to cry when Gatsby shows her his collection of English shirts? It's almost as if she's trying to fill some sort of void in her life with materialistic things or maybe she no longer feels a love for Gatsby the individual. At the end of the chapter, I perceived a notion that Daisy isn't all that Gatsby expected. Once he finally meets Daisy, he has nothing more to look forward to. I personally think that Gatsby was enticed with the idea of Daisy, rather than Daisy's physical presence.
