First things first. I am very pleased with this montage, both the picture and the poem. Good!
Now for the chapter. It is a very thoughtul, wise and sensitively written piece. I loved Baba's ability both to diagnose the new roadblock accurately for Aisha, but also to work out a solution to it and force Aisha to go along with him in implementing it despite her doubts, fears and evident reluctance. This is exactly what is meant by tough love.And it always works. The last line said it all.
