Kite Runner Entry Three

Amir is now living well in America. Not as well as when he was in Afganistan, but well enough. He has a good wife, Soraya, who is a very kind and beautiful girl. I was rather dissapointed that Amir did not tell Soraya about him and Hassan, even though Soraya told Amir about her shame of having a boyfriend. Though, I was happy to find that Baba and Soraya's father accepted their (Amir and Soraya's) marriage. The traditional Afgan marriage is quite interesting. It is a traditional Afgan wedding song with a few pictures of weddings, or awroussi. This is probably what Amir and Soraya's wedding may have looked like. I was also surprised that Soraya and Amir could not have children, although this waould have probably been for the best; how would they have supported a child? Although Amir has money from his novels and Soraya teaches, I feel that they are better off without a child, despite how much they want one. While Amir is happily living in America, a war is going on in his homeland. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7883532.stm. Amir was one of the thousands who fled Afganistan, which was left in shambles from the war. Many factions are fighting for control when Amir returns to Afganistan to see his friend Rahim Khan. Frankly, I'm almost surprised that Rahim stayed in Afganistan, but he, the ever-loyal and hopeful figure, stayed in his homeland. I wonder what news he will bring to Amir of Hassan?
