One Night................

I decided to pen down a modern day love story inspired by Romeo and Juliet…….. Here’s a teaser……….

Late one night Juliet is studying in her room……. Her cell starts ringing…….
“Hello????????”
“Hey how’s my baby doing??????”
“Am studying………….”
“Oh god……… will you stop studying so much???????????”
“I need to get through a good college you know……..”
“ Ya ya…….. There are a lot of expectations from you… I know all that………”
“Even you need to study “
“Don’t worry about me. My exams are 2 months away…… I’ll surely get through Marine…”
“Yes you need to for your future..”
“I’ll do it for OUR future…..”
“Really???????????? Dats choooooo chweeeeeeeetttt”
“Ya I know I am very sweet.”
“No you are not”
“Arrre you just now said that I am sweet….”
“I said it just like that. I didn’t mean it……”
“So you don’t love me??????????”
“Nope”
“But I love you”
“I love you toooooooooo”
“You are weird … and I love you more than you love me…….”
“Wow what a compliment……. You love me because I am weird?????????”
“No I love you because you are so original; there is nothing fake about you”
“Really?????????”
“ Really, I have never loved anyone like you and neither will I ever…”
“Will you love me like this always???????”
“ALWAYS”
“Promise?????????”
“PROMISE……………………”

As they say promises are made to be broken……. Romeo and Juliet were separated. The only difference is Shakespeare’s Romeo was a victim of circumstances, my Romeo left his Juliet on his own wish………… but they lived on…….
Romeo with smiles and joy because he didn’t care
Juliet with tears staining her countenance so fair....
