Chapter 64

• Dashtan helped Rakia move the woman’s belongings to his room. Rakia was arranging her clothes in Dashtan’s wardrobe, which was empty and unused by the man. When Dashtan had finished carrying all of Rakia’s belongings to his room, he approached the woman at his side of the room, which was a special place to store his clothes. He sat on the floor leaning against his other closed wardrobe near Rakia’s.
• “You don’t want to get a new wardrobe?” Dashtan tried to make conversation.
• “No, what for?” Rakia answered at once without looking at Dashtan; she was busy with her clothes.
