Summary
It would be disingenuous to say that Jamil hated Kalim throughout his entire life. There was a point in time where the two were truly friends, where the feeling of comradery was mutual. Through the rose colored glasses commonly sported among children, he did not see Kalim Al-Asim, heir to the Asim family. He saw Kalim, a boy who despite being three months older than him, had to be watched closely lest he get into trouble. Someone who, despite needing to be respected, always was happy to see him and called Jamil his closest friend.
The issue was that those happy moments sprinkled throughout his childhood were tainted the moment Jamil realized the gravity of his position along with the fact that he would never be as important as his “friend.”
