Mary is another female character in the story. Her duty is to take care of a newborn child who is the narrator’s and John’s kid. She is responsible and kind.

Mary knows her duty and does it with love and care. Although the reader doesn’t find out a lot of information about this woman, her name speaks volumes. It gives the illusion of Virgin Mary.
