Gaia is a quiet woman and the straw that broke the camel's back.
When you are a listener, you find people that truly deserve your sympathy. Your heart breaks for them, because you know that life is dealing to them from a stacked deck, and the things that happen in their life are profoundly unfair and sad.
Then, you find your perception of them has been an illusion all along, and that your sympathy you felt for them was woefully misplaced.
Gaia's illusion came from talk of an apparently bad marriage. Her newlywed husband did not wish to support her and treated her like a commodity rather than a wife. As their marriage was falling apart, Gaia became pregnant and endured her pregnancy alone. Gaia fears her ability to take care of her child alone.
In reality, Gaia had sex with another man while married to her husband and became pregnant with the other man's child.
They always say you have to watch out for the quiet ones.
I listen. For whom shall I feel sympathy and whom shall I judge?
