Native Son thoughts of Mary's death

The way that Mary came to  die was very sudden, I would had never thought that Bigger would kill her that way,  well it seemed that he didn't want to kill her, he just didn't wanna be found by Mrs. Dalton. By trying to keep Mary from making a noise he suffocated her. The way that Bigger reacted when he found out that Mary was dead tells the readers that he didn't want to kill her. Many would ask why he burned her or why not just blame Jan. Well  maybe if Mary was not white and was black he would not of gotten scared, his fear got the best of him he was just thinking of what might happen to him because he had killed a white person. If Mary was black he would not of gotten scared because she would of been of his own race same social class as him, and not of a higher class. I also think that Bigger is not the only one to blame of the killing, i believe that Mary had something to do with her death because she was making Bigger lie for her and was making him not do his job.
