Amier is now 48. Amier is summoned by his fathers most loyal old friend, the servant (father of hassan) after Amier agrees to meet him, hassans father reveals alot that amier wished that he hadn't., one was that Hassan, and his wife had been killed in Kabul because the taliban wanted the house they were living in, however, hassan was able to have a child, a strapping young lad, that amier had been very close to, never missed a beat of his life, and hassans father asked amier to go rescue him from an orphanage in Kabul. Amier is confused as to why he would ask him to do it. then Hassan's father reveals another secret, He had a first wife, but was un-able to father any children, however, when she re-married she bore three daughters, by this time Amier was questioning how he could be in-fertile if he had had hassan. and then Bam! "I think you know" you father was the illigetimate father of hassan, and then lights went on, ringing back to pas events, why Baba attended all of hassans birthdays, and other functions, Amier was furious, and described it later as "coming home to your house to find all of the furniture re-arranged", it's all there but all different" he later calms down, and returns to Kabul to rescue Hassan's son and return him to a foster family in the unites states.
