Attachment Theory: One

June screaming all the way to Minneapolis, frazzled Rose putting her finger in June’s mouth. Mr. C saying, Babies cry. Eventually they quit. [Eventually June claims she cannot cry.] June screaming through tomorrow, and the next day, day after day of racking sobs no one can calm. June in V’s old bedroom, crying in the crib that Cousin Harold bought at Sears. Bottles cold or warm, blankets tight or loose, diapers clean or dirty, rocking, walking, bouncing, nothing comforts June. V’s seamstress mother taking June at midnight so Rose can get some sleep. Rose dead-tired at the bakery, but glad to leave V’s screaming baby at the sitter’s down the hall. June never in Ray’s care because Rose knows. [Or is that just wishful thinking?] Rose a failed mother standing at June’s crib when it’s V that June expects. Forever and forever and forever, it will be V that June has lost.
