Wajma talks about visiting Afghanistan, the country of her birth, and wanting to go out for ice cream with her male cousin. Her cousin graciously took her out and, after a while, asked her if they could go home as he felt uncomfortable. Wajma, beautifully and non-judgementally, reflects on what the interaction said about how she lives by her values as a woman, and how her life might have been different were she raised in Afghanistan.
