Part Two: (Paragraphs 2-4) The three paragraphs elaborate on how their problems arose from their different personal preferences and how these differences have developed into a kind of “cold war” (silence). It is a flashback into the author’s early years. Part Three: (Para. 5-6): In paragraph 5, the author recalls her childhood when she enjoyed her father’s profound love. Paragraph 6 returns to the present moment when, after long years of estrangement, the author cannot but wonder whether her father will extend his love for his “little daughter” to his crossbred grandson. Part four: (Para. 7-13): These paragraphs concern about the author’s observation about the initial reaction of her parents in their reunion Part five: (Para. 14-15): These two paragraphs serve as a conclusion of the story.
