Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Adam, Hanna, and their dad visit the museum and sit by the fountain. Adam loves the spot and sits there thinking about when his mom died. He, Hanna, and their dad started visiting the museum on Saturdays together. The museum even helped Hanna sleep when she normally never could. In the café on Saturday, Adam watched his dad praying and admired his peacefulness. He told his dad he wanted to be Muslim, too. They talked about Islam, and Adam converted shortly thereafter.
Zayneb meets up with Adam’s family at the museum to see the rare jewels exhibit. They talk about their family backgrounds and favorite eras of history. Adam feels drawn to Zayneb but tells himself it isn’t the right time to start something with her. However, he also wants to keep spending time with her.
Zayneb thinks about Muslim women, Ayaan, the prophet Muhammad, and Adam while touring the museum with Adam and his family. She realizes how much he loves his sister and dad and can’t stop thinking about being closer with him.
In one room, Adam and Hanna tell Zayneb how much Adam likes to make things with his hands. Adam explains that he started making things after he got sick and dropped out of school.
