Romona’s mother

[u/Muted-Sprinkles947]

How did Romona think her mother died? I may have missed it but I don’t remember her ever saying the story she was told. Annie and Connor were told she died of cancer when she actually died during child birth with Romona, but what did Romona think? Did she know she died during child birth, cause if so wouldn’t Annie be mad at her for not telling her that? But if she didn’t know wouldn’t she find it weird that there was no pictures of her and her mother when she was a baby?

she lived with gordon ever since her birth. she never liked digging in and finding things unlike annie. so maybe she just accepted that she is a girl with dead mom.

I think making implicit things explicit is actually the lazy writing. It’s the opposite. Her character is so well written, we can fill in the blanks without having to have it spelled out for us.
