Текст на Статията
- 5 year old Mariam accidentally breaks her grandmothers vase, which makes Nana call her a harami for her entire childhood
- You are a clumsy little harami. This is my reward for everything I've endured. An heirloom-breaking, clumsy little harami.
- What does harami mean?
- There is a pistacio tree, and beneath it, Mariam jo, is buried none other than the great poet Jami. Jami lived over five hundred years ago. He did. I took you there once, to go to the tree. You were little. You wouldn't remember.
- Mariam's father, Jalil, visits Mariam every Thursday for about an hour or two. He never spoke to her like her mother. He brings her jewelry, calls her his little flower, and tells her stories.
- Jalil isn't like this. I don't feel like a harami when I'm around Jalil.
- After Jalil left, Nana talks lowly of Jalil to Mariam, telling her everything Jalil tells her is a lie. Mariam doesn't like how she talks about Jalil, but doesn't dare to speak up 
- What rich lies! Rich man telling rich lies. He never took you too any tree. And don't let him charm you. He betrayed us, your beloved father. He cast us out.He cast us out of his big fancy house like we were nothing to him. He did it happily.
