Laila's love for Aziza deepens, and Lailia tells her daughter about Tariq as often as possible, always careful to never use his name but refer to him only as her father. One evening when they're preparing for bed, Rasheed asks Laila about her relationship with Tariq. Although Laila is quaking with fear, she holds her ground and insists that she and Tariq were always and only friends. Rasheed warns Laila that if he'd better never discover her in a lie. This confrontation makes Laila worry about her newly formed plan: to take the money she's secretly been stealing from Rasheed to escape to Peshawar in the spring. Laila is horrified by what the consequences would be if Rasheed found out about this planned betrayal.
A couple of days later, Laila finds a stack of baby girl clothes outside her door and thanks Mariam for the generous gift. Mariam explains that she has no use for them, having made them years ago when she was pregnant. Mariam also thanks Laila for standing up for her, explaining that no one else had ever done so. Laila tells Mariam she was raised to stand up for injustice, then suggests the two of them have some chai on the porch. While drinking the tea, Laila and Mariam have a long visit. Laila can tell they are no longer enemies.

Explanation:
Two small-time criminals, Bill and Sam, kidnap Johnny, the 10-year-old red-haired son of Ebenezer Dorset, an important citizen, and hold him for ransom. But the moment that they arrive at their hideout with the boy, the plan begins to unravel, as the boy actually starts to enjoy his kidnappers. Calling himself "Red Chief", the boy proceeds to drive his captors to distraction with his unrelenting chatter, malicious pranks, and demands that they play wearying games with him, such as riding 90 miles on Bill's back pretending to be an Indian scout. The criminals write a ransom letter to the boy's father, lowering the ransom from $2,000 to $1,500, believing that the father won't pay much money for his return. The father, who knows his son well and realizes how intolerable he will be to his
captors and how eager they will soon be to rid themselves of the delinquent child, rejects their demand and offers to take the boy off their hands if they pay him $250. The men hand over the money and the howling boy – who had actually been happier being away from his strict father – and flee while the father restrains his son from following them. The ironic situation is where the kidnappers have to pay the father to get his son back (or in truth, to actually agree to even accept him back) instead of the father's paying the kidnappers for the return of his son.
