Chapter 18

The Diary of Alphonse Frankenstein 6
         Victor has finally came home and i am elated to see the improvement in his character. He has changed from his sad and melancholy state into this character that glows bright with an inner light of spirit and delight, and still, deep in side his inner core i can sense the gloom that still lingers from the previous circumstances. I thought that telling him my future plans of him and Elizabeth would kick him back into that continuous circle of happiness that he seemed to be on before the horrible deaths of William and Justine.
        I resisted from jumping with joy when i heard that he new well of my plans and expected the engagement of him to Elizabeth. I also tried to reassure him that if it were what he was worried about that there should not be a worry in his head.
        He said that he wants to go to England first, before the wedding, which i was quickly induced into complying with. He said that he will be gone for at least some several months, maybe a year, but on the month of his arrival we will have him married to Elizabeth and happy for the rest of his life.
      He left on the latter end of September and by now should be at Strasburgh waiting for his friend Clerval who is also accompanying him. With all the love a father could give to his son
