ROMEO & JULIET

This Story is about two rich and important families, the Montagues and the Capulets, that were mortal enemies in the ancient Verona, Italy. Romeo, the only son of lord Montague, was accidentally invited to the lord Capulet`s party.

 Paris, a relative of the prince of Verona was also invited to the party he was going to ask Juliet, lord Capulet`s only daughter, to marry him.

When Romeo noticed Juliet he instantly fell in love. He asked her for a kiss and she accepted, after that first kiss she was also in love with him.

A couple of hours after leaving the party, Romeo came back to the Capulet`s House looking for Juliet. Juliet opened her bedroom`s window and declared her love to Romeo without knowing he was standing outside. Romeo also SAId that he was in love with her and both of them decided to get married.

Romeo ran to Friar Laurence`s house and asked him to marry them, he accepted this marriage FOR THE peace between the two families. Juliet arrived to the church and they got married.

Once the night was over Romeo escaped to Mantua, but Juliet´s father and mother told Juliet that her marriage to Paris would be in three days, and if she was not GOING to follow their rules, they rather prefer her dying in the streets than living in their house. Juliet ran to the church looking for advice from the Friar, who suggested her that in order to avoid her marriage, she could drink a medicine that would make her seam dead when actually she would not be. The Friar`s plan was to make Romeo come and wait at her tomb until she wOkE up. Juliet agreed and grabbed the bottle.

(The plan was working; at the beginning everybody thought Juliet was dead. Romeo´s servant, Balthasar, went to see him to let him know about Juliet death) Unfortunately, Romeo was contacted before the Friar could let him know about the plan. Romeo bought a bottle of poison and ran to Juliet´s grave. He managed to enter Juliet´s grave and kissed her for the last time and drunk the poison. Juliet woke up and saw her husband´s body lying dead so she took his knife and killed herself.
