Why does Hassan tell Amir about his dream?

• A. To tell Amir there is nothing to fear about the kite tournament.
• B. To warn Amir about a monster.
• C. To tell Amir there is no magic in the world.
• D. To ask Amir to protect him from Assef.

Answer: (A)

Reassurance and loyalty before a pivotal moment. Hassan shares his dream to calm Amir and remove fear about the upcoming kite tournament. This moment shows how deeply loyal Hassan is: he wants Amir to face the contest with confidence, not anxiety, especially since the tournament is tied to Amir’s desire for Baba’s approval. The dream serves as emotional comfort, framing the event as something manageable rather than frightening. The other options don’t fit because the scene isn’t about a monster, magical notions, or needing protection from Assef; it’s about giving Amir a sense of safety and encouragement to perform.
