“There wasn't space for him in my womb. And he was crawlin' back. Being helpless and thinking baby thoughts and dreaming baby dreams and messing up his pants again and smiling all the time. I had room enough in my heart, but not in my womb, not no more. I birthed him once. I couldn't do it again. He was growed, a big old thing. Godhavemercy, I couldn't birth him twice.”
When the word got out about Eva being put in Sunnydale, the people in the Bottom shook their heads and said Sula was a roach.

Everybody remembered the plague of robins that announced her return, and the tale about her watching Hannah burn was stirred up again…
