Tybalt Monologue

Good evening, Capulets. I am probably the last person you want to hear, see, or talk to but I am sending you this letter to apologize for killing your dear cousin. I know about the family feud and the last thing I wanted to do was add more wood to the fire to light it up even more. I love Juliet and I wouldn’t do anything to hurt her. That was not my motive. That night Tybalt was provoking me,nevertheless my best friend Mercutio stood up for me and as the next minute as I was trying to prevent a fight, Tybalt went under me and stabbed Mercutio which sadly killed him. We both left and when we returned me and Tybalt had a very heated argument which led to the death of him. I didn’t want to kill him. I may have saddened your lives but I am truly
