Why do fear and love exist together in Kezia's mind towards her father?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because the father's behaviour is stern but hidden affection also exists in the relationship

Kezia’s mixed feelings arise from the contrast between her father’s outward manner and his underlying care. His stern voice, strict expectations, and occasional punishment frighten her, so fear is genuine. At the same time, she wants his approval and affection, and the night-time incident shows that he can comfort and protect her. Thus love is also present, although it is not openly expressed in everyday conversations. Option A is correct because it explains both sides of her emotional experience. The other options either contradict the story or offer unrelated causes. The contrast makes Kezia’s character realistic and shows that family relationships can contain fear, dependence, longing, and love at the same time.
