Amir, all the time, regret and fell sorry about what happened between him and Hassan in the previous time. When Amir was beaten by Assef, Amir did not fight back because he thought that he deserves that. Amir looks at the situation from more general view and many things from the past were involved. For example, Amir thought that the same person (Assef) who beat Hassan just beat him too, this is one point. The second point is that what happened to Assef in the jail and loosing his vision were a punishment to him. In short, Amir was beating by the same person who beat Hassan as well as what had happened to Assef was what Ameer meant when he said “Let’s just say we both got what we deserved” Yes, I agree that both got what they deserved.
