- This seems like a flashback to young Pedro Páramo again, since there's more rain and a woman identified as a mother, but it's not explicit in this section who exactly we're dealing with. In case you haven't noticed, things are a bit mysterious in this slim novel—plot-wise and structurally.
- In this scene, the mother is crying, and tells the boy that his father is dead. The weirdest part is that when she tells him that they'd killed his father, the boy asks his mother who killed her.
- Psst: The creepiness is just getting started.
