Entry #5

Dear Diary,

Goodness gracious. This world is so messed up. My daughter, Hermia, loves Lystander but she can not be married to him because I do not except of it. Thesus didn't agree with me. He thought that forced love isn't right and that I should let my baby, Hermia get married to that horrible witch boy, Lystander. Well Ya right. I am not going to listen to him. My Hermia is going to get married to whoever I want her to get married to. Even if it is Demetrius. Hermia needs to know that she does whatever and whenever her father wants. She is a women and women have to do what the guardian man says. I am her guardian man and until she marries, which she will marry Demetrius, she will have to obey my rules and not complain. That is a good one. A new rule is she has to do what I say when I say and cannot complain. Yes! Three points for Egeus and what zero for Hermia. Looks like I am going to win the bet. Let me tell you about that bet. Hermia and I made a bet that whoever can come up with the most senceable rules gets to sit in the good seats at one of the theater preformences. My rules are; 1) Every women has to obey the guardian ma or the women will get sent to the gallows. 2) Every man has to obey the King even if he doesn't like the law (Hermia said that this was already a law but I think she was just jealous. 3)The women has to do what the guardian says when they want it and is can be whatever and the women still has to do it.

Very hip and cool,

Your Favorite,

Egeus
