It’s the night and my thoughts are all directed to Ernest. I can’t think of anything else. The mention of his name in my head is an eternal music to my ears. I try to guess what my mother told him yesterday. She can be very mean sometimes but she only wants my good. It’s normal for a mother to worry about the future of her own daughter. I don’t know much about Ernest but my senses tell me that he’s a good man. Mother is deeply enraged about Ernest’s origins and his possible future in the society. I can’t wait to see him Friday. I will finally have the chance to express my real feelings for him. Flirting with him is like what I always dreamt about came true. Even if my family is not in accordance with my engagement to Ernest, I love him and this is the truth. I’ve decided to try and convince my mother even if she is hard headed.

Dear journal,

I’m now engaged to the beautiful Gwendolen. I’m in love, that is certain, and still don’t realize that she’s also in love with me. It is unbelievable! It’s been a few days now and I can’t stop thinking about her. The little problem is that she loves Ernest, but I’m not Ernest, I’m Jack! And she said to me that Jack isn’t a good name for a respectable person, and that Ernest is better. I hope that when she’ll discover it, she’ll still be in love with me as if I was the so-called Ernest she thinks I am.

I'm planning to go in the countryside in a couple of days, I have some things to deal with. My friend Algy will go Bunburying. Wow, I'm still thinking about Gwendolen, she's so beautiful, I'm the luckiest man in the world to be loved by her. I really hope it'll last forever...

Hello, my name is Jack, I'm a young bachelor looking for love.
