The relationship between Amir
and Hassan The grew
up without there real mother and drunk from the same breast. Amir is the son of a generous, wealthy and celebrated
businessman. Hassan is in compare with him very poor
and the sun of a servant. Even there live are not same, than Amir is by religion(form) Sunnit and Hassan Shiti. There is also the difference between there urgine, because Amir is a Pashun boy and Hassan is Hazarat. But for Amir at the
beginning and as child this all differences were not of weight. Very impressive
is that the first word of Amir was Baba which means
father and the first one of Hassan was Amir. Amir and Hassan enjoyed doing everything together, were playing so
much together like cop and robber, torture insects and use a piece of mirror to
annoy the neighbours. They spended
the most lovely time underneath their pomegranate tree on top of a hill.
Later as Amir went to school they climbed the hill
and Amir read for Hassan under there tree so many stories. The also carved
into the tree the phrase: "Amir and Hassan, the sultans of Kabul”. Amir
was offending Amir and laughing about him, because he
was uneducated and did not know some wordmeaning. But
Amir never considered Hassan
and him as friends. Maybe by knowing all the diffrences
between them and knowing this is not changeable. Amir
never played with Hassan in front or with the other
kids. Because there were always bothering him with his background and his
appearance. And Amir did not want also be bothered of
them so he never appears with Hassan. This shows that
Amir does not hold to his "friend" and
support him. Lately this will be a fact. Amir and Hassan participate at the tournament of the kite running.
For Amir this is a
opportunity to prove at his father. At the end they won the tournament. Hassan runn for the second place kite till the down town.
On his way back with the blue kite he came across with the kids of the
neighbours. The start to bother him like always but this time they wont hurt him only take the blue kite. But as much as Hassan loves his friend Amir, he
rather get beat up than give those kids the blue kite.
However Hassan get raped by
those kids and his bloodsbrother Amir
was watching hidded. This was the breakage of the
friendship between Amir and Hassan.
After this act their lives led them follow two
separate pathes. It was Amir
which avoided Hassan. Because the repetance
he did not help Hassan was lasting and making him
sick. Also not knowing if Hassan
saw him hidden and watching during the disaster. The father-son relationship between Baba and Amir The relationship between Amir
and his father was not to envoy. Because a father should be proud of his son,
but that was not the case. Baba had seldom spend a lot
of time with Amir. Baba rarely went with his son on friday to the zoo and make
something great with him. And if once this was the case his father was lost in
thought or looking non-stop at his watch. Amir gave
him self as excuse that his father was a very busy man. Even at dinner Amir sometimes was alone or sitting quite in front of his
father. They had nothing in common. His father was as child very masculine,
never a victime always defending his self or friends.
Baba was very buff and everyone respected him. His father was that kind of
child who was dirty of playing football all the day and climbing trees. Amir in compare was very coward, thin and was whenever reading books. The
passion of Amir after books was also writing stories, he would rather exaggerated die than doing or wathing soccer. That why his father was
disappointed as he could not convience Amir to play a sport like soccer even wathing.
Amir was already
very distressing by knowing he is not the son his fahter
wish to have. Amir has always also the feeling his
father was accusing him for the birthdeath of his wive. Lately as Amir won the kite
run his father was proude of him
and spend more time with him. His father read as well all the stories Amir wrote. Baba hold also after
the won tournament a very big birthdaypart as Amirs get 13. This nice father-son relationship did not
last for long. Id disappeared as Amir asked his
father for new servant, because of the situation between him and Hassan. His father was peeved at Amir
about this idea and said to him, he should not even mention that everagain. Afterward Amir was so desperated and accuse Hassan of stealing his new watch. His father called Ali and
his son to talk to them about . Ali insist
that is was the time to abandonaid Khabul. Baba could not convince. Amir remember how much Baba
cried unashamed as they said goodbye Ali and Hassan.
Later as Ali and Hassan left, his father was opservering him less than bevor. The bond between Baba and Ali or Hassan Baba and Ali grow up and spend there childhood like Hassan and Amir very lovely
together. Ali was orphan and Baba's father raise him.
Baba gave Ali and Hassan all that they would never
had. For Baba Hassan was equal as
his own son. Baba has as well everytime a big gift
for Hassan's birthday. What Amir
notice was, that Baba was proud of Hassan and gave
him more attention. Hassan was for Amir's father that kind of son he desired to have. Baba was very sad as Ali and Hassan
decide to leave. That shows how important those two persons for him were. The friendship between Amir
and Rahim Khan For Amir Rahim
Khan was the father he never had. Rahim Khan was very
nice to Amir, because he was the best friend of Baba
and knew about the relationship between Amir and
Baba. Rahim Khan tried to encourage Amir in everthing. As good
example was the beautiful letter he wrote for Amir
after reading Amir's stories. There was as well more
conversation with Rahim Khan. But one thing Amir did not tell him, the disaster which happened to Hassan and that he did not do nothing.
But at the same time Rahim Khan knew also about that
fact. Rahim Khan know about
everything that Amir's lifes
consider. That Amir was a coward and run away. Rahim Khan gave him all that his father did not gave him: more esteem. höhere Schule Gruppe
