From the text:

She talked to us of plans for what we would do if the Taliban came. She thought she could sleep with a knife under her pillow. I said I could sneak into the toilet and call the police.

I Am Malala

-tell him her mission and pupose

“I asked myself what i would do if a Talib came to kill me. Well,I wouldtake my shoe and hit him. But then i thought: If you hit a Talib with your shoe, there's no difference between him and you. You must not treat others with cruelty. You must fight them with peace and dialogue. “ Malala,” I said to myself. “ Just tell him what's in your heart. that you want an education. For yourself. For all girls. For his sister, his daughter. For him”(119)
