The Kite Runner pt2

Throughout the beginning of the story, Amir and Hassan confront multiple bullies around the house, most of them pick on Hassan because he's a Hazara and they pick on Amir for being friends with a Hazara. That leads to Amir denying to himself that they are friends, and just thinking that Hassan is a servant and he must remain that way, although the truth is that they aren't just friends, they're like brothers. Amir also seems to be jealous of the relationship that Hassan and Amir's father have. In his mind, his baba prefers Hassan to him even though he treats them the same way. And the fact that Amir and Hassan are treated the same way by Amir's father makes him even more jealous because he thinks he should be treated differently and better by his father than a servant.
