Scene 2

(next morning in the priest's house)

Priest: (doing his morning routine- dusting and organizing) How wonderful; oh, that looks nice.

Romeo: (knocks and walks in) Hello, how is your morning?

Priest: Very well, but what are you doing about this early, looking exhausted? By the way, how is dear Rosaline?

Romeo: I came to see you about that.

Priest: (interjects) What? You have been so in love - what could be the matter?

Romeo: I am no longer taken by Rosaline, Juliet has taken my heart. Though it is by surprise, it is gone and shall not be with anyone else.

Priest: Really, how did this come about?

Romeo: It was last night. Our eyes met and I knew.

Priest: Son, how can you know what love is? Um, you are still a child and so is she.

Romeo: But, that matters not, if you know, you know, You know. Well, obviously you don't know because you're a priest and what not. But still, do you catch my drift?

Priest: (shakes his head) Yes I do, but I think you are moving a bit fast between the ladies.

Romeo: I love Juliet and want to marry her.

Priest: Oh, and how do you think that is going to work out?

Romeo: That's in fact the reason I came to you this early. I think it'll be swell and today would be nice.

Priest: (looked shocked) Whoa, what?

Romeo: Yeah, I would like you to be the proctor. I don't want to deal with all the issues.

Priest: Oh, you mean like the fact commonly known around the town of rivals amongst your kinds?

Romeo: Yeah, I want to avoid that. I am pretty sure neither family would be proud.

Priest: You've got that right sonny, you are to be with Rosaline, and Juliet with Paris.

Romeo: It can change.

Priest: Are you sure? What will you do? Where will you go? Have you thought of that?

Romeo: Indeed, I have. Those I do not want to share with you. I assure you they are safe ways.

Priest: I do not want to be wrong, but if I don't see love between you, I do not think I can go through with it.

Romeo: Does that mean yes?

Priest: Many may disagree, but yes. Only under those conditions will I marry you two children. Later today.

Romeo: Thank you so much.

Priest: Yes, you're welcome. Now, leave, be on your way.

Romeo: Good day. (Romeo exits the Priest's humble abode)

Priest: Good day.
