Romeo And Juliet: Act 2

One of the most interesting scenes in act two, is the obvious balcony scene. My favorite part of the balcony scene is after Romeo and Juliet declare their never ending love for each other, Juliet's nurse calls from within the Capulet mansion. I think that the nurse's call had perfect timing. It seems to me that whenever Romeo comes close to Juliet, they are interrupted by some outside force. So in the future of the book, I think that Juliet and Romeo will get interrupted by something or someone, if the play follows the same pattern.
This part of the play strikes me close to the heart because it seems to me that my mother has the same kind of timing as Juliet's nurse. For instance, I was finally talking to the guy I had a crush on when my mom started telling me it was time to leave the class. Even though I gave her a few " please go away" looks, she never let up. This is how I feel sorry for Juliet with her embarrassing nurse.
