Crucible Writing Assignment (#2)

Dear Diary,
Alright I’m starting this diary so I can at least tell someone about how exciting my life is! I currently work as a housekeeper in house of the Proctor family, and it’s really fun. No, it’s not the work that’s fun, but it is the fact that I am kind of involved with John (Mr. Proctor). I know it sounds bad since he is married, but God put us together under the same roof for one reason; to unite our hearts. His wife is sickly and pregnant, so she never notices.

I was out in the woods with a few of my friends and Tituba, (a slave and housekeeper for another family) because she was trying to conjure spirits. I don’t even know why she was, but all of us just got so excited! We are never allowed to have fun or do anything exciting, so all of the girls just tagged along. Well my uncle caught us and the next thing I know, two girls in our village won’t wake up! They just freaked out and then fainted. Next thing I know, everyone is blaming us for witchcraft and then I am blaming Tituba! I started freaking out like I had seen the devil and just went along with it. Then all of my friends went along with it too. It was super weird but now we are out of trouble! We just have to go to court tomorrow to clear up some accusations some of the girls
