1. What is ironic about the way the author and the father become close? What has to happen to the father?
They become close when the Father falls ill and has to go to the Hospital and the child starts asking questions about his life,
2. How would you characterise the conversation that the author has with her parents?
He has non sentimental conversations almost like they don't love the Author
3. What is it that worries the author most about these conversations?
That he never is able to say he misses them or that he loves them
4. There is a gap between the author’s need to express feelings common in western countries and her family’s lack of desire to express their feelings verbally. How does the family still express their feelings for their child, just not verbally?
They keep talking about him or talking to him as well as asking how his day is and how he is going.
