Rose's Plan
I feel like a prisoner having to marry Cal Hockley.
That overbearing beast will treat me cruelly.
My mother wants me to marry him for the money.
These events should not be happening to me.
Mr. Jack Dawson, I’m so glad I found you.
I know the feelings I have for you are true.
When this ship docks in New York in another day,
I plan to follow you and run away.
Despite your shortcomings, I want to be your wife.
We will leave these surroundings and start a new life.
Based on the 1997 film “Titanic”
