Chapter Title's

Ch. 17 Returning!



I named it returning, because of how Ishmeal is returning to his old self. With the help of Esther, (His Nurse, and friend) Beah rediscovers the part of him that died during the war. The sort of innocence that he lost was regained in a way. He learns about love and family again, rather than being independent and cold as he had been following his time fighting in the war. He is returning to a normal state of mind, and is dealing with the demons of his past.



Ch. 18 Reunion



For obvious reasons, I named this chapter reunion. Beah is told that he will be living with a foster family after his rehabilitation is done, but he tells them of his uncle that he had never met but only heard about. To Beah's surprise the people at the clinic find him and they bring him to meet Beah. Throughout the chapter, Beah is reunited with the feeling of family. He has a reunion with happiness. A reunion with a feeling that laid dormant within himself for years.



Ch. 19 New Beginnings

Beah goes to live with his Uncle and cousins. He finds out that they are all very much happy people. Which is a contradiction to his own personality. Beah is still going through the steps of learning how to be happy again. He is asked to go on an interview to be a representative of a conference in New York City about children across the world. Beah is chosen, and prepares to leave the place he was only just getting accustomed to.
