Diary entry

Here you can see two diary entries from the book The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. hyde

August 24, 1889
Great Britain, London

Today is a hard day. I'm trying to finish the potion to separate my good and bad part of my soul.
It's a very complex preparation. I put too many ingredients to finish this potion. Tomorrow I'll show scientists that I'm telling the truth. that is possible to do this, I'll dismiss this myth, I'll show Laynon that I'm right. He always told that it's impossible to show that. Now I'll finish the potion. I have to include some ingredients and mix it all. I'm so anxious, I want to drink it and see what happens. But leaving these feelings apart, I'm so nervous. I don't know what will happen then, if I'll become a normal man, like now, or if I'll stay like this and nobody can help me. If the potion becomes addictive and I can't stop drinking it. I'm scared! I hope this will goes by quickly and i won't suffer.
I finished the potion. It's ready to drink it. Now I'll go to sleep, tomorrow before breakfast, I'll drink it, so Poole doesn't suspect something

Bye
Dr. Henry Jekyll

Dear Diary, I'm ready to drink the potion. I was so nervous that I slept only four hour. I went to sleep at 3 o'clock and I get up at 7 o'clock. I told Poole if he could go to buy some food for breakfast. So that he didn't see me. And the other servants, I put them to clean all the house, so they are inattentive and don't bother me. I'min the lab, now I will drink it. Then I will write the effects of  the potion so I have clear what will happen when I drink it again.
It had been four hours more or less. I was Mr. Hyde for some period of time. I was too strong and little. Really I dismiss this strange myth. I was right, Laynon was mistaken. I have a really strong headache, and I'm really tired. I don't remember what happened when I was Hyde. My clothes are broken. And I hope that Poole and Utterson don't see me walking in the street.
Well now I'll go to eat something and go to sleep.

Good bye
Dr. Henry Jekyll
