hypothetical question?10pts!!?
okay, pretend that your parents just got divorced. your dad, who is from the middle east, is going back to visit his family in Pakistan. you know everything isn't safe there yet and before he leaves, he tells you where all his legal papers are and just how much of a life insurance policy he has. he tears up, which is very unusual. he also says that if you have any doubts or questions about him, just to ask. your mom has told you all kinds of vague, 'illegal' things your dad has done, as well as never to get on a plane with him, heading to Pakistan. he says that you know him, he's just himself and you can talk to him about stuff. this weekend, he'll be gone to go to Pakistan.
yeah, i'm bored and i'm done studying for my chemistry test, so i made up a little story. any thoughts? even if you have any sudden, brilliant flash of philosophical insight into something totally different, feel free to share it.

To me, the story is about looking beyond what everyone else 'sees'. The person this child knew as her father continues to be that same person; even though the details surrounding him have changed (so she has recently heard), that doesn't or shouldn't change the dynamics of their relationship, providing it was a decent one to begin with.

well to me it seems that the child will not be seeing his/her father after that weekend. somehow i get the feeling the father will be doing something else that might cost him his life. if he has done many illegal things in his past as the mother said..then he might be heading to pakistan to repent for his sins. there are a lot of possibilities of what might happen.
