Chapter 9
Amir has been looking through his toys, he doesn’t like them because they feel like blood money, even Baba’s gift, so he threw them in the corner of his room. Ali and Hassan gave Amir a gift for his birthday which was a new Shahnamah because of his old one being old, Amir wished that they never bought him a gift so he put it in the corner with the rest of the toys but he kept looking at it so he put it at the bottom of the pile, Amir than realizes that one of them had to go. The next day, Amir waited in Ali and Hassan to go to the grocery store, Amir than went to Ali and Hassan’s hut and put Amir’s birthday money and his new watch in Hassan’s mattress. Amir than went to Baba and lied and said that Hassan stole it, Baba than asked Hassan and Hassan said yes, Amir thought that Baba would dismiss them and find new servants but Baba said that he forgives him. Ali than says that he has made a decision and says that they are moving out, Ali gave Amir a cold look and Amir actually was happy that somebody thinks of him as a coward. Baba begs Ali and Hassan to say but Ali says no, Baba cries to Ali and tells him that he was the brother that he never had but Ali told him that their stuff is already packed, Baba than asked them were are they going to stay and Ali states that they re staying with their cousin in Hazarajat. Baba takes them to the bus station and asked Ali once again do they want to leave but Ali said yes. Amir feels bad about what he did and is sorry about what he did but he feels that he will finally live his life and that his guilt will go away. Amir didn’t do nothing about the situation he just let them leave.
