Her mother actually thought she was going crazy. She would go about and tell all the people living in her apartment building that her daughter was purchasing a bus to live in. If Jessie’s mom had thought of her this way, then it wasn’t impossible that might have, at one point, even referred her to therapy! Still, the adventurer continued with her plans.
