"Noong unang panahon, ang Capulet family ay may anak na babae na nag ngangalang, Juliet. Ang Montague family naman ay may anak na lalakeng si Romeo. Nag mamahalan sila, kaso pasekreto dahil mag kaaaway ang dalawang pamilya. Ngayon si Juliet gusto ipakasal sa isang lalakeng hindi niya naman gusto. Naisip ng pamilya, para tigilan ni Romeo si Juliet, papainumin ng 'lason' si Juliet para 'mamatay' siya. Yun, nakita ni Romeo yung 'kabaong' ni Juliet at nag pakamatay, Biglang nagising si Juliet dahil hindi naman talaga siya namatay, at nakita ang patay na katawan ni Romeo... so... nag pakamatay rin siya." kwento sa akin ni Mary.
"Yun na yon?!" sa aking gulat yun na nga yon.
"Oo, bakit akala mo ba palaging happy ending ang lahat?"
"Oo. Sino ba nakapag isip ng kwentong yan!"
"Si William Shakespeare may angal ka?"
Bugtong hininga. Yung lang ang aking ginawa, at sinauli ang Classic na libro sa shelf bago ko pa hiramin. Dapat pala hindi ko na tinanong si Mary kung ano yung mang yayari, pag aaralan din naman namin yan sa 3rd Quarter eh!
