What does an empathetic reading of Kezia's father's silence suggest?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: He may be burdened by tiredness and responsibility

The governing concept is contextual interpretation of behaviour. Silence can communicate distance, but it does not automatically prove the absence of love. An empathetic reader considers the father's working life, tiredness, responsibilities and reserved manner alongside Kezia's fear. His later response to her distress confirms that his quietness should not be read as total indifference. Option A is correct because it offers a reasonable explanation supported by the father's circumstances while still recognising that his communication is limited. The other options make extreme claims that the story does not support: he does love his family, does not plan to leave, and clearly recognises Kezia.
