Ask Me No Questions #4

"You think you can just start again? I see you there! Sitting around, fat and lazy! What are you going to do?' " (page 44)

When uncle said that I was surprised and shocked. My opinions on uncle was that he was this sweet gentlemen who cared for others dearly. Maybe he is, but definitely don't get him started about crossing the border. It was very extreme! He said strong and crude words to Nadira that she could take the wrong way. But that was his whole plan to get her down so that she could feel bad about trying to start over. He wanted her to grasp that it is not an easy task to cross the border. I know what he said to Nadira wasn't nice, but she did have to understand that it's not a piece of cake and that it takes hard work and persevierence. Uncle giving her this lesson was good, because I'm sure it made her think twice about her decision. Let's hope that she's not a rebel and try to do bad things. Hope!
