Marriage?
Act 2 Scene 3


I cannot believe it! Today, Romeo approached me while I was in my garden collecting medicinal plants. He seemed rather rushed in his greeting, and I could tell that he had not been to bed the night before. I immediately assumed that he had spent the night with Rosaline, but he soon informed me that he was actually with his family's greatest foe, a Capulet. He wasn't with just any Capulet though; he was with the beautiful Juliet Capulet. 


Soon after that, he informed me that they are in love and that they wish to be married. Married?! Honestly, it is as if he pays no attention to what I advise him to do. At first it was Rosaline with whom he was madly in love, and now all of the sudden it's Juliet! I have told him countless times to take his relationships slowly and not get too invested with someone too quickly. This time, it's not just love. It's marriage! 


However, I soon realized how great this marriage could be. This marriage could mean the end of this great family feud! I reluctantly agreed to marry them. Romeo was immediately overjoyed and rushed off to find his love. 


Oh rash and irresponsible student, when will you learn to listen?


As always, God be with you-
