Romeo and Juliet: As Time Repeats Constantly

If I would be given the chance to change the last part of the story Romeo and Juliet, the story would be like this:
     After Romeo received the news that Juliet was dead , he immediately travelled back to Verona. While travelling, he met Friar John along the way. Romeo quickly asked Friar John if Juliet is really dead. And because of that, he gave Romeo the letter from Friar Laurence and let him read it. After reading the letter, Romeo became happy and excited to see and be with Juliet once again. He continued his travel and went straight to Juliet's tomb. 
     On the other hand, Paris is crying and mourning in Juliet's tomb. When he finally decided to leave the tomb, Juliet woke up. When he looked back for his final glance, he saw Juliet alive and moving. Because of that, he became overjoyed and hugged Juliet right away. Since Juliet is still weak because of the potion that she drank, she wasn't able to push Paris away from her. Instead, she just talked to Paris and told him everything about his love for Romeo. Realizing how happy Juliet is with Romeo based on her story, Paris decided to let go of Juliet and let her be with his love Romeo.
     When Romeo arrived at Juliet's tomb, Paris immediately talked to Romeo. He apologized to Romeo and told him about the plan that he and Juliet made. Paris helped Romeo and Juliet from their escape to Verona and their feuding families. They went to Mantua and there, they lived happily together with their child Helena who is deeply in love with Paris' son, Demetrius.
     After several years had passed, the Capulets and Montagues still fight and argue with one another despite what happened before. For the second time, their children named Hermia and Lysander fell in love with one another. And again, another story of star-crossed lovers, began.
