My lover Macbeth and I are now King and Queen. We parade around in out highly expensive attire. We’re having a party for our crowning. Banquo, who is Macbeth’s better half, is invited. Macbeth and Banquo need to discuss problems with Malcolm and Donalbain. Macbeth told me today that Malcolm and Donalbain have fled to Scotland. They are plotting against Macbeth becoming King. I can tell Macbeth is glad that he is finally King, however the murder of Duncan is fresh in is mind. I haven’t really mentioned the murder of Duncan to Macbeth. I’m afraid if I bring it up, he will go crazy from the guilt he is building up inside. There hasn’t been much time for either of us to reflect on what we have done. We have had balls, parties and the crowning since Macbeth is King now. There is a lot of pressure and eyes watching us. No one really suspects us for murdering Duncan, but it is apparent that we are happy to have our new power as King and Queen. I hope people don’t start figuring out that it was us. I do feel guilt in a way for what we have done. I sometimes feel like it is my fault and not Macbeth’s. I pushed Macbeth into doing this. He most likely would have chickened out if it wasn’t for me. I’m scared what our future will be ahead of us. We will all have to wait and see.
