"Then I run again, blindly, into the dark streets."
In the context of the book, this quote seems literal at first. But when I looked at it again, I thought that it seemed more like a metaphor. This seemed like a metaphor for Nadira having no idea what to do or where to go next. She knows that Aisha can't help her, and their mom is also too weak to help. So, in a sense, Nadira has taken off, with no idea where to go or how to get out of her family's problems.

Oh yeah, I never thought of it metaphorically. Cool! :)
