Kindle Notes & Highlights
In Persian, you don’t simply say, “I miss you.” You say, “Jaheh shoma Kahliheh,” which means your place is empty. Azadeh's not being here has left a void nothing and no one can ever fill.
This is how it’s always been with Azadeh and me. She goes off to discover new things, and I wait to welcome her home.
But we all know why we stay frozen in time. It’s so a pretty girl with long black hair always has a place to call home.
