Quote #10

The man who came back from prison was barely recognizable, but Parvana knew who he was. Although his white shalwar kameez was now gray and tattered, although his face was drawn and pale, he was still her father. Parvana clung to him so tightly she had to be pulled away by Mrs. Weera so that her father could lie down. (15.1)

Parvana is so excited to see her father that she doesn't quite understand how much he suffered in prison—and because of this, we realize just how much she's suffered in his absence. This girl is majorly glad to have her dad home.
