OBSERVATION
Santiago and Manolin are inseparable; their relationship is built on mutual respect. Santiago teaches Manolin to fish. Manolin is a committed companion; he cares for Santiago basic needs in winter and makes him feel alive despite the old man’s poverty and “salao”. Santiago is Manolin’s preference as fishing companion. Irrespective of their age difference Santiago and Manolin are close friends.
The question was well attempted and performance was good.
