Awkward, yet successful
Explanation:
The first time Gatsby and Daisy saw each other after a very long time, was on the house of his new friend Nick Carraway who happened to be Daisy’s cousin. At first, it felt very awkward since they had a flame for each other in the past; but now, Daisy was married to someone else.
