Chorus Ten years ago on this very day, our beloved Romeo and Juliet ascended to the pale blue sky to be with one another for as long as eternity lasted. Juliet, as you all know, was betrothed to Paris, Prince Escalus' kinsman. But dear Juliet did not agree with her parent’s choice of marriage, and instead chose to secretly marry Romeo.

Yes, dear Capulet, my heart is very troubled. I miss my beloved wife and Romeo every day. I wish they were in my arms, but like you said, tears will not bring them back. Lord Capulet. For as long as we live, we will miss our loved ones who have accessed to the sky. Although there is nothing we can do but grieve, they will be in our hearts forever and always.
