Bingley and I Visit Longbourn

My friend and I recently traveled to Hertfordshire, and after we had settled down, we were invited to Longbourn. When we entered, Elizabeth seemed to feel awkward, but she greeted us civilly. She hardly said a word throughout the rest of the evening though. Mrs. Bennet was civil yet rude to me, and I assume it was because of my attitude during my last stay at Hertfordshire. I understand that Elizabeth knows about my involvement with her sister's wedding, and whenever Mrs. Bennet made snide comments at me, Elizabeth would turn an awful shade of red. I tried to remain withdrawn from Elizabeth because, even though I like her, I still can foresee the consequences of marrying someone with such lowly connections.

  1. It was lovely to see you and Bingley back in town. Although my mother may not have shown it, we are very honored to have such distinguished visitors. I hope you are both well. Bingley seemed to have something that he wanted to say. Do you have any idea what it was?
