Then there was a gap. An 'a' followed, then a 'p, ' an 'o, ' and an 'l.'Marvin paused for a rest. After a few moments they resumed and let him see the 'o, ' the 'g, ' the 'i, ' the 'z, ' and the 'e.'The next two words were 'for' and 'the.' The last one was a long one, and Marvin needed another rest before the could tackle it. It started with 'i, ' then 'n, ' then 'c.' Next came an 'o' and an 'n, ' followed by a 'v, ' an 'e, ' another 'n, ' and an 'i.'After a final pause, Marvin gathered his strength for the last stretch. He read the 'e, ' the 'n, ' the 'c, ' and at last the final 'e, ' and staggered back into their arms.' I think, ' he murmured at last from deep within his corroding, rattling thorax, 'I feel good about it.' The lights went out in his eyes for absolutely the very last time ever. . Douglas Adams

I don't know if you have children of your own, Mariamjo, but if you do I pray that God look after them and spare you the grief that I have known. I still dream of them. I still dream of my dead children. I have dreams of you too, Mariam jo. Imiss you. I miss the sound of your voice, your laughter. I miss reading to you, and all those times we fished together. Do you remember all those times we fished together? You were a good daughter, Mariam jo, and I cannot ever think of you without feeling shame and regret. Regret… When it comes to you, Mariamjo, I have oceans of it. I regret that I did not see you the day you came to Herat. I regret that I did not open the door and take you in. I regret that I did not make you adaughter to me, that l let you live in that place for all those years. And for what? Fear of losing face? Of staining my so called good name? How little those things matter to me now after all the loss, all the terrible things I have seen in this cursed war. But now, of course, it is too late. Perhaps this is just punishment for those who have been heartless, to understand only when nothing can be undone. Now all I can do is say that you were a good daughter, Mariamjo, and that I never deserved you. Now all I can do is ask for yourforgiveness. So forgive me, Mariamjo. Forgive me. Forgive me. Forgive me. Khaled Hosseini
