I DIDN’T SPEAK to him again after that lunch, until an afternoon in 2013, when, after the election that at last ousted the unhinged president and once more brought a moderate man to the presidency, I called to congratulate him on his appointment as the minister of foreign affairs. I had, by then, fallen out with Akbari, and quit the Ministry of Intelligence. When I asked if he would consider employing me, I was certain he would refuse. After all, this was a new era that would best be served by fresh faces. Why select this scarred face of mine? But I had little left to lose. As I spoke he cleared his throat several times but remained quiet. Then he said, “Yes, I would like to extend you this chance. After all, kessi az dele kessi khabar nadārad—no one knows of another’s heart.”
