Plz help me I was totally confused. I checked again and saw that, yes, it indeed was the same book. Mash Assadollah must have used the next ten pages to wrap goods for other customers. No matter how I tried, I couldn’t think of how to bridge the gap and connect the story up to page 32. The situation of this boy had totally changed!

I felt my face droop. I got up and tucked the book under my arm and marched straight back to Mash Assadollah, who was taking big blocks of hard sugar out of the burlap bag and inspecting them. Grandmother’s copper bowl was on the counter next to the scale. He was lost in his thoughts of the sugar and didn’t notice me. I coughed a few times to get his attention, but he didn’t hear. Finally, I wet my lips and spoke. “I hope your sugar hasn’t gotten too moist, Mash Assadollah. I would be so ashamed.”

When he heard my voice, he vented a poisonous, angry glance and said, “What else do you want from me? You have your book! Go away! Mind your own business!”

I said, “Could you please tell me who you gave the other pages to? And that copper bowl there by the scale belongs to us.”

This was the last straw for Mash Assadollah. He fell like an ax onto my arm, grabbed my wrist and said, “Why don’t you leave me alone?”

“OK, I will! I’ll leave you alone. I’ll mind my own business. Here is your old, worn out book. Just let me see the title of it.”

It was called Escape to the Mountains. I picked up the copper bowl and went home. I had begged Mash Assadollah, who was actually a kind and gracious man, not to say a word about this to my grandmother. When he realized that I wasn’t trying to annoy him on purpose, he forgave me.

On my way home, I had many different thoughts about what had happened to the boy in the story. I couldn’t forget the book! I was like a thirsty person who had tasted only a splash of cool, clear water on his lips—and wanted more!
