Amir thought Hassan was wrong. There was a monster in the bed of the lake, and it had grabbed Hassan and dragged him to the bottom of the lake. Amir didn't speak to Hassan for a week. He wrote stories and read a book every couple of days.When Hassan asked him to play with him, he denies. It seems like Amir s feeling guilty for the fact that Hassan had been loyal to him by saving him from Assef, but he was not able to save him.
When the winter was over, Amir and Baba were planting turnips. Amir asked baba that if he would get a new servant. Baba got angry and scolded him.
In school, Amir's mind always returned to the alley and Hassan's blood.
Amir turned thirteen that summer of 1976. He guessed that in this birthday of his maximum people had come. Amir, his father, Mahmood, and his mother, Tanya had come too. Baba thanked them for coming. Rahim Khan gifted Amir a leather bound notebook. Ali gifted him a book on old Persian stories .
Amir takes his watch and some of Afghan bills and planted it under the carpet. He acted as if he had lost it. When Baba asked Hassan about it, he said that he had stolen it, Hassan's final sacrifice. Amir felt as if he's been slapped. Amir thought about what Baba had said, When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness.
Hassan and Ali said that they will leave.Baba forgives them.But still they left.They went to Hazajat to their cousin.
March 1981
Baba and Amir were in a truck.Afghanistan is under the control of Afghan communists and Russian soldiers. They have turned everyone against each other, and people inform on each other for money.Russian soldiers arrived to increase the price of passing through. Baba stands up and tries to shame the Russian soldier, but the soldier says there is no shame in war. The soldier threatens to shoot him. Amir tries to get Baba to sit down, but he pushes Amir away. Just before the soldier shoots, another Russian stops him. The driver says that his brother's truck had broken a week ago. Baba strangles him until a woman stops him. They wait in the basement with other refugees.Amir recognizes Kamal among them, but he looks sickly and old. Amir overhears Kamal’s father explaining what happened to him – four men caught Kamal while he was out alone and raped him.
Karim finally finds a way to get the refugees to Pakistan, in a fuel truck. It is difficult to breathe. Kamal died in the poisonous fumes. Kamal's father shoots himself.
Amir had become mature. Amir has betrayed his friend in a lot of ways. He left his friend..
