I apologize for the late blog, the internet literally turned back on like ten minutes ago.
Although I could probably search for a story on the web for a similar story to Romeo and Juliet, I'd rather use a story that I know personally, my mom and dad!
A little more than 15 years ago, my mom was engaged to this guy whose name was Stewart. He took my oldest brother Will as his son, and they all planned to move into a house together. When summer came d the corner, baseball season started up, and my mom was on the same team as Stewart and his best friend, Kyle Gubbe. As the season went on, my mom and dad became closer, and Stewart and my mom became more distanced.
I'm an August baby, and although I really don't like to think about this, my parents got together for the first time that fall, and the outcome was me. My mom and Stewart were still together, but I was definitely my father's child.
My mom and dad weren't supposed to be together, my grandparents didn't like him(I don't really blame them) and he was bestfriends with my moms fiance; but in the end they were together, for the next 12 years or so. They weren't married until I was almost one, but their love lasted more than a decade. It wasn't quite as powerful as the love Romeo and Juliet shared, hence them not being together anymore, but at first my mom said their "love was lovely", and that's all that counts I think.
