#靈感編劇大賽# #人生第一次# #樹洞# Season 1: Juliet's Sorrow Story Episode 2 Scene: The Capulet Mansion — After the Banquet Count Capulet: Seal every entrance and exit! We must find the person who sneaked into the banquet! No one is allowed to leave without my permission! Servants: Yes, my lord! (The servants scatter and begin searching.) Steward: My lady, why are you crying? Juliet: I don't want to be with someone like my father wants me to be. Steward: It seems your father has already decided on your engagement. Many people say marriage is the biggest investment of a lifetime. The cruel truth is that, for most people, it turns out to be a loss. But you don't have to agree with that. Juliet: I know you don't mean any harm. Steward: My lady, in this family, the appearance of a stranger itself is dangerous. If you saw anyone suspicious tonight, please tell your father honestly. It is late. Please return to your room and rest. Leave everything outside to us. (The steward bows and leaves. Juliet looks out the window, remembering the young man she met at the banquet.) Juliet (softly): If he is found... may heaven protect him. Juliet's thoughts: "Who is he? Why does he feel different from everyone else?" "I never thought someone could make my heart beat so fast. Why did it have to be you?" "No one knows my pain." "I cannot betray myself." "If no one helps me, I would rather die than go against my own heart." (Juliet decides to leave the mansion, but her maid keeps following her. In her mind, Romeo's gentle face appears again and again.) The goodbye I couldn't bear to say to you tonight has become an unforgettable obsession in my heart. Maid: You seem troubled, my lady. Are you tired from the banquet? Juliet: It's just... I met someone very special tonight. Maid: Was he one of the noble young men at the banquet? Juliet: I... I don't even know his name. Maid: Your father is searching for the person who entered the banquet. Please don't wander outside alone. The night air is cold. Let me bring you a cloak. You should rest now. There will be many things to handle tomorrow. --- The next morning Juliet's father comes to see her. Count Capulet: Although the man I chose for you is a little older, you shouldn't expect him to break the tradition of our family feud. Do you think he would abandon the hatred between our families, reject the grudges passed down from the previous generation, and choose love over conflict? That is impossible. And don't even think about leaving the mansion. (Juliet ignores his words and keeps walking toward the garden, waiting to see Romeo again.) How many nights have I endured because of you? I only remember the freezing loneliness I suffered alone. This love has never been forgotten by time. How I wish I could see you again... love you one more time. I still can't forget you. Even though we only met once, I can't stop thinking about the moment we held each other. I hope one day this moment can happen again in my life. Have you already gone far away? (Juliet only cries. She refuses to eat or drink and waits in the garden all day.) Juliet: "I have been waiting for you. Will you come back?" "I really miss you... Do you know that?" "If I could have another chance, I would still wait for you." --- Evening (Suddenly, there is a sound coming from the bushes.) (Juliet looks toward the bushes. Her tears stop. She waits quietly.) (Romeo appears.) Romeo: "Today... can I hug you?" Juliet: "Why do you suddenly want a hug?" Romeo: "Because today was tiring... and because I missed you." (Juliet quickly runs into Romeo's arms.) Juliet: "Only today?" (Romeo slowly approaches and gently embraces her.) Romeo: "Whenever you want to hug me in the future, don't hold back." Juliet: "What if I hug you for a very long time?" Romeo (smiling): "Then I'll stay with you until you're ready to let go." Juliet: "I will never let go." (At that moment, a group of guards surrounds them.) (Romeo whispers to Juliet.) Romeo: "Help me escape." Juliet (quietly): "Go toward the stairs." Guard: "My lady? Where did the person go?" Juliet: "I... I just saw a cat run past. It startled me."
