Two housesholds, two families, two hateful minds, and two lovers. This is how young Romeo and Juliet lost their lives for their love.Romeo and Juliet both belong to different families that have hated each other since forever but somehow fell in love but knew they would never live happy and ended up killing themselves to be together. The parents both feel guilty of their children's deaths and the feud ends. But we are going to look deeper into the story and find out maybe what we did not know before.
Romeo Montague, the 17 year old son of Sir Montague,and lover of Juliet. He is a loving man and a caring man. He truly showed his love for Juliet even though she was his enemy. He met Juliet at a party hosted by the Capulets and fell in love. He is friends with Mercutio and Mercutio is a great friend and sticks up for Romeo as Romeo fights Tybalt.Tybalt was actually Romeo’s cousin after he married Juliet but Tybalt did not know that and hated Romeo with all his guts. Both Romeo’s friend and enemy were slain and after that Romeo was banished for killing Tybalt. But one of Romeo’s other close friends, the friar told him not to worry and he was the one who got Romeo and Juliet married.
Juliet Capulet, the 12 year old daughter of Sir Capulet, and lover of Romeo. She was a kind girl who although was young knew what she wanted. She was loving just like Romeo and loved him with all her heart. At the party she was dancing with Paris and had noticed Romeo and she fell in love. Juliet had one true person who cared for her other than her parents and that was the nurse. The nurse was always supportive of Juliet even when she wanted to marry a Montague. The nurse and the friar worked together to get Romeo and Juliet together.
We decided to look at this a little closer and found the nurse and asked her a few questions. When asked what she knew about the incident she burst into tears. "I told her it was best for her to marry the man Paris but she didn't listen!" She also mentioned that Romeo was not the right choice anymore because of his condition but Juliet's love was so strong she did not care. The nurse blames herself for trying to help Juliet even though she knew she was in love with a Montague but she can't change the past.
After interviewing the nurse we decided to interview someone from the Montague household and that was Romeo's father. He did not know too much about the marraige but he did say that if he knew he would've had stopped the whole thing from happening. "I would've stopped that whole thing from happening if I knew about it."
The end result of this tragedy is that the Prince deals with the two households. I think that the parent's of the lovers should be held responsible. They are the ones who caused these two lovers to try and do their marraige secretly and if they had not done that they could've lived happily. That's all the information we have for now.
