Summary
It hits Simon, on a random afternoon when the artificial sun is hiding behind the clouds, that he misses his mom.
He’s in the bathroom when he feels it, washing his hands and looking at half of himself in the mirror again. It’s not an entirely new feeling; grief is something he constantly carries, like a small ache beneath his ribcage. What he realizes is new is the absence of things that were once fact. Once he had known the curve of her smile, the scent of her perfume in the air, her hair in his hands; now, he can only distantly recall how she looked.
