A father at last

Baba is said to be in extreme happiness at Amir's graduation from High school. But he was just learning how to be a real father. His last, and in my opinion first, fatherly duty was when he "hobbled up Taheris' driveway." (163). This shift in a relationship is something Amir has dreamed of the entire book. It only takes cancer, and a move to the other sied of the world, along with a few years, for Amir to finally have the father he always dreamed of. Even the fale relationship the kite brought was not a real relationship. this one is. What brought it on? it was that Amir fianlly made Baba proud. He graduated high school, and he was surpassing Baba. Amir was in college, and Amir did what a man wold do: he asked his father to arrange his marriage. Baba finally sees Amir as a man because of the simple request.
