I am gonna die - these questions appeared in my mind as I moved further . suddenly I thought I had to stop or it would come to my house.
without further thought I stopped . the footsteps behind me also stopped. I had to face it now or later. I turned behind and saw there was no one . I ran as fast as my feet could carry me to home.

Explanation:
Khaled Hosseini's "The Kite Runner" is the story of Amir, a boy from Afghanistan who, more than 26 years later, recounts his childhood years. It also revolves around the theme of identity, belonging and the effects f the numerous traumatic events that he experienced.
Amir's relationship with his father is not the good and he also admitted to being the cause of it. For, Amir's mother had died while giving birth to Amir. Baba blamed him for taking away the life of his wife, even though she gave him a son too. He even stated in Chapter III "<em>I always felt like Baba hated me a little. And why not? After all, I had killed his beloved wife, his beautiful princess, hadn’t I?</em>" Thus, Amir believed that Baba hated him for the death of his mother.
