News Story

Article by: Evan


What was once a great love story, turns out to be a tragic love ending. When Roger Worthington was coming home to Australia from a visit to Venice, Italy, he bumped into a gorgeous young lady in the Australian International Airport named Julia. Almost immediately, the two fell in love. Soon enough they learned that they lived in neighboring towns and their families had worked together in the car industry. The two eventually split up and go to their desired homes. Later in the week Roger and Julia set out for a date to talk about things seeing they are already considering getting married. After the date, Roger brings Julia home to meet his parents and introduce her to them. When they get there, come to find out that Julia is a Robinson, Roger’s parents are furious and he can’t seem to figure out why. When the night ends, Roger brings Julia home. When he returns home, he sits down and Mr. and Mrs. Worthington explain to Roger their feud with the Robinsons. “Those damn knickerbockers extorted money from us!” said Mr. Robinson. They further explained to Roger that the Robinson’s made Mr. Worthington buy 3 cars from him for 15,000. But, the cars were only worth 8,000 dollars but if Mr. Worthington didn’t follow the Robinson’s commands, he threatened to burn down their house. All in all, Roger didn’t care about the family feud; he was still in love with Julia. The next day, Julia called Roger with bad news. “(crying) Roger, we cannot see each other anymore.” Julia says. Mr. Robinson had told Julia that she could not go near Roger and had to marry her ex-boyfriend Cory. Julia and Roger were both distraught they couldn’t be together. Refusing to marry Cory, Julia had a plan. She would buy a liquid that will place her in a coma for a day then wear off. She had planned to take this drink the day of her wedding with Cory. Julia told her brother Carl to tell Roger about the plan and to meet her at the Sydney County Coroner’s Office. When the day came, her parents had thought she passed away so they called the police and she was taken away to the coroner’s office. The next day, Roger had received the news that Julia was dead. Emotionally depressed, Roger felt he could no longer live on without Julia. Roger had never received the information from Carl because Carl as well as Mr. Robinson did not want them to be together. So, Roger contacted the local dealer Willy for some poison that will kill him. “Ayo man, can I get that poisonous stuff you got?” Roger depressingly said to Willy. “Yea mang, no problem, just don’t be stupid with it.” Willy replied. In a bad state of mind, Roger bought the poison off of Willy and drank it back at his house. Meanwhile, Julia was just awakening from her coma and went back home. She called Roger and he wouldn’t pick up. So, Julia snuck over to the Worthington’s to find Roger dead. When she discovered Roger, she was beside herself and felt she couldn’t live on. Julia took a knife, and stabbed herself in her heart. She fell next to Roger and lay bleeding to death. Dead.
