Thorns in the Heart I

             "I  knew...but  I  still  remembered  them  sometimes  while  I  was
         alone."

             "You always ran around mom. So it was effected to you now. But
         you will forget when you have a boyfriend."

             Hanh-Phuong shakes her head.

             "I don't have a boyfriend."

             "You will..."  Hung looked at Hanh-Phuong and said. He raises his
         face to Bich-Lieu.

             "Are you sure you don't want going out tonight with me?"

             "Yes.  Hanh-Phuong  will  go  with  you."  She  looked  at  her  sister
         and  added:  Hanh-Phuong.  You  must  forget  it  to  live,  go  with  him
         tonight.  I  hope  you  will  have  a  new  good  friend  and  something
         interesting. Do you remember Mrs. Van?"


             Hanh-Phuong holds her chopsticks. She stopped to take the tofu
         on a disk and looked at Bich-Lieu.
             "seemed I forgot her."


             "I took you to her ball-family three years ago."

             Suddenly,  Hanh-Phuong  thought  of  Nguyen;  she  nodded  her
         head.


             "Yes...I  remember  her  now.  I  had  met  her  last  month  on  the
         bus."

             "Well... Do you want to go with him or not?"


             Hanh-Phuong kept silent and looked at the dining table, while
         Bich-Lieu gave a quick looked at her and her husband.

             "I thought you take Hanh-Phuong with you. She may find a good
         friend to forget her sorrow. It is the best way to do for her."
