Page 303 - Thorn In The Heart

Chinh Nguyên

I be...? When I was pretty........ Heard, what she said to me...
Whatever will be will be... The future not out to see...

He sang again, and again this song from his soul in a
moment of his happiness in the rain.

Suddenly, Nguyen saw Quang's old sister in the Truc-Lam
grocery shop, on Ly-Thuong-Kiet street. Nguyen stopped by,
walking into the Truc-Lam story.

"Hi...Sister Dung..."

Dung threw a painful look at Nguyen in a moment; then she
looked down

to hid her moisten eyes.

"Nguyen, how are you?" In the sobbing emotion, Dung
asked.

Nguyen wondered about her action, but he does not
understand why she

carried the sorrow in her eyes, and fading in her face.

"Sister Dung. You stay here, please... I walk back my truck.
I will drive to here and take you back home or somewhere you
want to go." Nguyen said.

Dung looked at Nguyen.

"No...! Thanks..." Dung refused.

Nguyen looked at her with his wonder.

"Sister Dung. You were like my old sister. What was
happening to you?"

Dung made her way through Nguyen right side, she said.
