Baba and Amir’s relationship evolution
When Amir and Baba move to the States, their characters change a little bit. Consequently, their relationship changes too. They, now, live in a modest apartment. Baba works at a gas station, but apart from his job, Amir is the only thing he has. Amir becomes, therefore, the centre of Baba’s life. This is what is very different from Afghanistan: over there, Baba was a busy and admired man in Kabul, and he didn’t have much time to spend time with Amir. Even when they actually spent time together, they didn’t really enjoy them because they didn’t have the same centres of interest.
