Are people born fools? I believe my friends were. They torment one another with dares doing one foolish thing after another!! However, I am their voice of reason even if I am ignored. I am Benvolio.
Romeo, my cousin he knew not that I was at that Capulet party with him. Mercutio and I we were there protecting him…well I was keeping all those people away while he and his lady met. I Fear I know not her name though I was just happy my cousin and friend was not thinking about that woman who held his heart just a few hours ago. Although when we left it, fell to the faithful helper to keep everyone from finding Romeo. I knew he wanted to seek his lady out. Ah though what a party! I still cannot believe we tricked the gates men. We wore antic faces and nobody recognized us. We sang and danced ahh what a time.
Mercutio and I often stay together during the day incase of him meeting those Capulet. Oh how this feud bores me. These Montague and Capulet's need to stop being petty before one of our friends is killed! I do not even know what they are fighting about! OHH call me a fool for tis what I am.
Alas, no luck finding Romeo perhaps I will find him tomorrow…I believe Mercutio is rather angry with Romeo for he said "Without his roe like a dried herring. O flesh flesh how art thou fishified! Now is he for the numbers that Petrarch flowed in. Laura to his lady was a kitchen wrench." I think Mercutio figured out that Romeo is seeing someone but she is much to pretty to be a servantwith most tired prayers ---Benvolio
