Rahmat's bond with Mini from "summary" of Kabuliwala by Rabindranath Tagore
The bond between Rahmat and Mini is a beautiful story of friendship between a young girl and an elderly man. Rahmat, a man from Afghanistan, develops a fatherly connection with Mini, an Indian girl, in spite of their cultural differences. Despite being apart for a long time, they still carry an everlasting bond in their hearts.- Rahmat had a beautiful bond with Mini and their relationship was extraordinary! They shared pleasant moments whenever they were together, and Mini adored the story of his life since she felt that dreamy world where she could fly away forgetting everything else around her.
- Nothing compared to the joy nor the ease of comfort both Mini and Rahmat experienced while spending time together. It was as if there was some internal connection between them that one can't explain, and only cherish.
- The love and compassion Rahmat gave Mini is something unique and special. He taught her empathy, courage and hope, but most importantly, he gave her a place of shelter of love and trust.
- Despite stories of far land, strange years and cruel realities lurking within Rahmat's memory, she stood firmly in the moment they both shared together. It was an escape from all sorrowful things in life where they could enjoy and delight in each others' company.
- Whenever he was leaving, Mini couldn’t help but feel gloomy because she knew she wouldn’t see him again soon. She treasured those memories and looked forward to when they will be together again.
