It was the day after Proctor died and I just needed to get out of the house and clear my head. I didn't know Elizabeth Proctor needed some fresh air too. We both took the same trail along a beautiful trail with beautiful scenery. I thought to myself, "What could he possibly do in the same place as me?" Sarcastically Elizabeth thought, "Oh boy, just who I wanted to see." Elizabeth and I soon start walking next to each other. We're just trying to enjoy a great day in Salem. The birds were singing, you could smell the air was fresh, the flowers were in bloom and you could tell that spring had arrived. This wonderful day ended when I spoke the first word to Elizabeth. Abigail (trying to hold back tears), John shouldn't have died. Elizabeth, I think it's too late Abigail. Abigail, if you're blaming me for his death, it wasn't my fault! (Angrily) and if anyone had to die, it should have been you, not him! Elizabeth, and I will, after this baby is born. I know this and I will pray that God will be merciful of John's adultery. (Looking Abigail dead in the eye) But I don't think he would ever overlook your sins. Abigail (not happy with Elizabeth), and I know God will overlook my sins, but I don't know why you were still married to the man when you knew what he had done. Elizabeth (She doesn't want to say anything else) you're right, why would I want to marry someone who committed adultery against him? Abigail felt insulted by Elizabeth and hit her with enough force to knock her to the ground. Elizabeth (struggling to get up) what are you trying to do, kill the baby or hurt me? I remained silent. The trees blew calmly in the wind, and the wind whistled softly as Elizabeth and I stood in f... middle of paper... am! Even though I'm a little happy to hear you say these things, I just don't understand, why now? Abigail, well, like I said, I was miserable and alone in the new town and I just thought people would be happy that I confessed and I think I did the right thing. Elizabeth, well I should say you did the right thing even if it's your punishment, I think you'll leave on a better note, but you'll still be remembered for the thing you did.Abigail, I know all I wanted was for the people of Salem were happy that I'm confessing and finally telling the truth. Elizabeth was still in complete shock, so I went to the court officer's office and told them what I needed to do tell them. The court officials were angry at first, but they understood my decision and intervened immediately. I left Salem on a better note than when I was forced to leave.
