Quote #10
"'Your mother loved you,' Jorge del Pino repeats urgently. 'She loved me,' Lourdes echoes.'" ("Changó," 196)
Lourdes can repeat it, but it's only an echo. She doesn't own this fact and certainly doesn't believe in her heart that her mother loved her. The rejection in her infancy feels too big to overcome.
