No, Miss Wright didn't want to meet her kid. To her, that relationship was just as important, just as ideal and impossible as it would be to the child.

Chuck PalahniukIf we can forgive whatโs been done to us... If we can forgive what weโve done to others... If we can leave all of our stories behind. Our being villains or victims. Only then can we maybe rescue the world.
