At this point in the reading Sophie has arrived in New York City to meet up/Live with her mother. In the reading I can still sense that Sophie did not want to leave Tante Atie behind in Haiti, as she stated when she went with her mother to a Haiti express “if I had the power to shrink myself and slip into the envelope, I would have done it”. Also in an early post I stated that “Atie has feelings for Mr. Augustin” I was surprised to find out that Donald (Mr. Augustin) was suppose to marry Atie, but he change his mind when Lotus (Madame Augustin) came along. A moment in this reading that really got my attention was when Sophie saw a picture of her mother, Atie and herself as an infant. Upon looking at this picture she was trying to “look for traces in the child (herself)”, some features that her and her mother shared, but she couldn’t find any and at this moment Sophie stated that “it was the first time in her life that I noticed that I looked like no one in my family”. Often when she went out with her mother people would stare at them and she always felt that she was being judge because she had no resemblance to her mother. Later on in the chapter her mother would explain how she (Sophie) was born, Sophie would then found out that she was a product of rape. Sophie’s mother would then say that “it is true what they say. A child out of wedlock always looks like its father”. Stating that Sophie looks more like her father than her mother.
