The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, By William Shakespeare. There were actually many signs of this hinting toward what happens at the end of the play. Have come across quite a few and found that it is interesting how a writer can do this.

There he meets a girl named Juliet, who is a Capulet, and falls in love right away. Romeo then decides to sneak in to her yard and watch her through her window. He overhears Juliet talking about him and confronts her about it. They come out to each other about how they feel about each other.
