Romeo’s Diary-Entry 4

Dear diary,

            I have been banished from Verona. To explain what was previously stated, a fight broke out between Mercutio and Tybalt. To prevent more fighting, I tried to get in the way of things, but it didn’t work out. I killed Tybalt, and now I’m being banished from Verona. This is punishment for my crime.

            My biggest complex with being banished from Verona is my inability to see Juliet. Juliet is my sun. She brights up everything in this world, and without her here with me, it is dark and gloomy all the time. Juliet is the reason for my happiness and it is a shame that there is a possibility I may never see her again. If I had known that one of the consequences of my actions was never seeing Juliet again, I would’ve handled the situation differently.
