Advice from a Sensible Young Man

Uncle Khalil is an old man who is a drug addict. He goes to Adil to ask him for money. At first he says it is for his family to help them along until Khalil starts his job, then it is for doctors fees, and then for a taxi cab. Uncle Khalil has become so addicted to drugs that he would through away his families future just to get another high. He comes to the point of begging Adil to help him, kissing Adil's hands and holding his arm and running after him. Adil keeps trying to tell Khalil that he needs to go and see a doctor and get cleaned up, but Khalil will not listen because he is so far gone from reality. It is ironic that Adil says that Khalil would be better off dead, because just after that moment Khalil is hit by a car and dies. I think Adil decides not to go back just because the man who was killed in the accident, Khalil, did not matter to him anymore, perhaps because it was not the same Khalil he used to know. Khalil became a low life because of his dependency on drugs and Adil treated him that way.
