February 20
It was a great idea to go to Friar Lawrence. He came up with a plan that I think will work. He has this potion that will make me look dead. Cool, huh? He’s going to send someone to tell Romeo what is going on, so he’ll know I’m not really dead.
I’ll drink the potion tonight before I go to bed. Everyone will think I caught some fatal disease and died. I feel bad for making my family and friends suffer. They’re going to feel terrible when they think I’m dead. But what else can I do? What is more important than love? Besides, when I wake up and can see my beautiful Romeo’s face smiling down at me, it will all be worth it.
I can’t wait until I wake up and I can spend the rest of my life in Romeo’s arms. Wish me luck!
