A<u> short story</u> is a narrative piece that presents ideas and themes in a lesser length. Since it has a <u>shorter scope</u> it must present <u>one plot</u>, deal with a <u>single problem</u>, avoid overcomplicating things, and should explore a precise theme through specific narrative devices. A <u>short story</u> rarely develops both main and minor characters, merely because of its length.
Novels, on the other hand, can develop both main and minor characters, and focus on multiple issues throughout the story.
<span>Death being discussed in this play is foreshadowing. The author is hinting that Romeo and Juliet will die or at least that someone will die. Foreshadowing is a good way to give your audience a hint about what is to come so they will feel suspense and will try to see what will happen next.</span>
