Kat entered the bedroom and was surprised to see Jeremy all dressed up and packing up.
"Wilt thou be gone?" Kat asked. "It is not yet near day."
"Oh you know what Kat? The week is over so you might as well end your games!" Jeremy said casting Kat an exasperated look.
"Games?" Kat asked confusedly. "What are you talking about?"
"You playing Juliet one minute then turning into a "Love Grinch" the next!" Jeremy exclaimed angrily.
"Well I'm sorry if that's how it appears to you. You know what I've been through, the divorce, the trauma…" Kat tried to explain.
"Oh please Kat! Spare me the drama!"
"Oh no… I can't believe this," Kat said choking back the tears. "You were just wanting to screw me all along weren't you? You finally got what you wanted last night and now you're showing your true skin."
"Well what about you?" Jeremy shot. "Your motives about this marriage aren't exactly pure. You know, your first marriage messed you up and now it's your turn to mess up with marriage. This marriage was your revenge. You know what? Let's just get this over with, give me those damn divorce papers."
Kat was crying as she went over to the drawer and took out the divorce papers.
In her hurt and rage, she threw them over at Jeremy.
He bent over to pick them up. He couldn't bear to look at Kat's signature. He covered that part with his left hand as he signed the divorce decree. He tried his best to control his shaking.
Kat felt herself breaking down as she watched Jeremy scribbled his signature so nonchalantly.
Jeremy tossed the papers on the bed after signing them.
"That's it. The week's done. Were done!" Jeremy said coldly.
He was about to walk out with his things when Kat said, "You really had me fooled there for a while. That was an Academy winning performance Jeremy."
"Well your performance was also commendable," Jeremy retorted. "I mean the dual role of Juliet and the Love Grinch, that was challenging but I have to say, you nailed it."
"So where are you going now? Moving on to a former co-star or going back to models or cheerleaders?" Kat snarled.
"Well what about you?" Jeremy retorted. "You've successfully had your first shot at screwing up with no strings attached. I must say I'm honored to be the first on your list."
"You bastard! Get Out!" Kat yelled out.
"You know what? You were right," Jeremy said. "Romeo and Juliet would have probably ended up this way. That's why Shakespeare have to end their lives or in a week, Juliet will discover what a bastard Romeo is and Romeo will discover what a stonehearted wrench Juliet is."
Jeremy turned around and walked out of the cottage. When he got on the car he thought, "Can I go forward when my heart is here?"
But then he remembered Kat's signature on the divorce decree and how she yelled that she wanted him out. Well if that's what she wanted…Jeremy started the car and drove away.
Kat was left all alone in the cottage. She broke down and cried her heart out.
"O serpent heart hid with a flow'ring face!
Was ever book containing such vile matter so fairly bound?
O, that deceit should dwell in such a gorgeous palace!
Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband?"
