Explanation:

"The Metamorphosis" is a famous novel by Franz Kafka in which the main character, a young man named Gregor, wakes up to find out he has transformed into a bug overnight. As we can see in this excerpt, Gregor's mother still loves her son and is struggling to make the decisions she believes will help him best. However, she loves her son, but not the bug he has become. She maintains the hopes that Gregor will come back to them again. Instead of accepting his new state and taking the furniture away from his room to help him move around, Gregor's mother thinks that keeping the furniture might be an incentive for the "real" Gregor to come back. She is torn between her love for him - or the human form of him - and the horror of accepting his new situation.
