My Favourite Part of Village by the Sea

Well, for this topic, I had no dilemma. My favourite part of the story would be its end. It is, as expected because it is my favourite part of the story, a happy ending. Well, Hari's mother is cured of her anaemia, his father is not the least drunk anymore, Hari has money enough to support the family. They can afford Bela and Kamal's books now because Hari has money. They finally have plans for the future--they want to become the owners of Thul's first poultry farm.
There is very much less stress, and I believe that the family will finally lead a "happily ever after" life because, first of all, Hari's mother is cured. After she is cured, there is much less burden on the family and the is on more breadwinner.
Secondly, Hari's father has kicked his drinking habit and I personally don't think that he will go back to that habit because of the events that happened throughout the whole course of the text. Because of his drinking habit, the whole family led a hard life. Therefore, as a father, I don't think he would want to go back to the drinking habit that caused that period of hardship for the family.
Because of these reasons, the family has less burdens and therefore they will lead a happy life thereafter. Hence, the ending of the text was my favourite part of Anita Desai's Village by the Sea.
