a' is parsed as:
a => symbol => evaluate => 2 => print prompt
' => reader macro => wait for more

Then you type the second a and it goes on:
a => translate 'a => (quote a) => a => print prompt

So reader is actually in "quote mode" when, you type
the second a. It sees the conversation like this

user=> a
2
user=> 'a
a

Hope this helps.

Sincerely
Meikel
