Father & Paris.



My father is so diffcult to deal with. He wishes for me to marry Paris, the pefect guy for me apparently. Paris is wealthy, good looking, well known, and respects all women. He is all that a woman should want in a man. If this is so, then why do I not want to be with him. Only few people know the true answer to that question. Romeo, the Nurse, Friar Lawrence, and I, are the only ones. I am in love with and wed to Romeo secretly; therefore, I can never go through with this marriage to Paris. Father once told me that, if I will not marry Paris, then I will be disowned by him and my mother, and thrown onto the streets. Lady Capulet had agreed with him. Afterwards, father and mother left me with Nurse. I asked Nurse’s opinion of the situation, and she had agreed. Paris is the man I should be with, instead of Romeo. I felt betrayed by Nurse. She was always the one person, besides Romeo, that I could trust to tell me the truth of everything. To tell me that I should leave Romeo – my love, my husband – was so very selfish of her.
