oops we are only discussing ch 1-2 thus far. What's that? Like 10 pages? I guess the jealousy isn't evident by ch. 2. However I will say that there is talk of brotherhood from feeding from the same breast and you get the general gist that the two boys, while having very different stations so to speak in life, have lives that are very similar. Baba hired the same women to breastfeed both boys, neither boy has a mother, both fathers seem to take part in the raising of both boys, Ali seems to discipline both boys, and the boys spend most of their freetime playing with each other. In the scope of the first 2 ch. it almost seems irrelevant that one child is a servant child while the other is priviledged. At the end of the day one kid sleeps in a palace like house while the other sleeps in a bare shack. But other than that their lives seem pretty entwined and more similar than different.
