2nd Post for Chapters 13-18

I thought the conversation starting on the bottom of page 121 and continuing onto page 122 was interesting. 

  • They were your friends? (Kumalo)
Yes, they were my friends. (son)
  • And they will leave you to suffer alone? (Kumalo)
Now I see it. (son)

 The son is caught anyway, and it is needless for his friends to get caught with him. A real friend wouldn't throw his friends under the bus. There is no use dragging his friends down with him. Why doesn't Kumalo see this?

Any thoughts?

    I think that Kumalo doesn't see it because he is looking at it an different standpoint as maybe he think that's the right thing to do. It may be the way he grew up and the way he may have behaved as a child and that may develop into trying to teach his son those ways.
