Crying is a very physically draining activity, and bawling for a long time is even more so.
Summer Fairmont didn't know why she was crying, nor did she know how long she had been crying.
When she was young, Summer Fairmont did hear some rumors about her mom.
But when she listened to them, it felt like hearing someone else's story.
Those peers who gossiped about her in front of her never stood a chance against her.
No rumors survive under the stick.
Those that weren't said in front of her, to Summer Fairmont, might as well not exist.
Summer Fairmont always insisted she didn't have a mother.
No reason needed, no explanation required; if she didn't have one, she didn't have one.
Why would Hieronymus, who is no longer around, mention "your mom" six times in such a short letter?
She, Summer Fairmont, clearly didn't have a mom, so why suddenly has she got six?
Who in this world would have six moms?
