The person that created him has gone. So what, is it going to change anything or impact his life. It is not a big deal to Mersault.
Instead focusing on his mom. Mersault concentrate every single details on the street "The young men had made sure that would have to bump right into them and then they would make craks. The girls giggled and turned their head away". Page 24. The past is from yesterday and today is just not yesterday. That's how he running his life.

I felt my eyes getting tired from watching street filled with so many people and lights". On page 24. Getting tired of either happiness and sadness that what felt.
However, human must have emotion, that is just a gift. Either hate or love, you must have one of. But it seems that Mersault have none.
