In this chapter, Amir knows the truth about his father and begins to remember all the phrases that Baba had mentioned about Hassan. For example when Amir asked to Baba if he’d ever consider getting new servants and Baba said “This is his home and we’re his family”. Another example is when Amir was happy for his graduation and new car but Baba ruined his day with the comment: “I wish Hassan had been with us today”.
The disappointment that Amir had to his father was big, Amir considered to Baba like a theft, and he used his same words to define a thief. He remembered “When you tell a lie, you steal someone’s right to the truth”. In effect, Baba was a thief because he had lied to Amir all his life.
The situation was very clear, Baba all the time had considered to Hassan like his son, but Amir never had seen this situation.
