In Chapter 3, everything changes. Nhamo dies when he was on the mission with Babamukuru. This is the event that makes a lot of things happen. The most significant thing that happened because of Nhamo's death is that Tambu is chosen to go back to the mission with Babamukuru. Nhamo's death shocks his parents and makes them extremely sad. The mother of Nhamo, who has always loved and trusted Babamukuru, blames him for Nhamo's death. So Nhamo's death basicaly affected evryone in the family negatively except Tambu.
It surprised me that Tambu was not sad about her brother dying. I know that they didn't like each other at all and Nhamo was mean to her, he was still her brother. All she cared about was getting his spot in the mission with Babamukuru. I could not imagine having one of my family member die and not completely fall apart. This just shows how much Tambu wanted to get educated and how much she disliked her brother.
