                " I loved you from the first time I met you at Van's house. You
            appeared in my life and then went far away from me.  After we met
            you again, I felt happy and warm, but you seemed cool, and selfish
            towards me. I am very aware of my condition. There is nothing of my
            own in this

                World!  I  have  wanted  to  kill  myself  in  a  fit  of  depression  to
            forgive and forget everything, even you. My life looks like the drafts
            in the order of the love story without setting some pages, a writer
            was continuing to write more and more. She left on the desk in the
            reception  office  of  business  and  going  out.  You  came  close  to  the
            desk, looked around and wondered at its Love topic. You read the
            topic and liked it, but you did not touch or open the drafts to read its
            story, then you made a turn and worked out. An other came in and
            sat  on  the  chair;  he  touched  the  drafts  papers  before  he  read  its
            topic, he skipped as he read the story, and made the drafts papers in
            the  confusion  of  its  order  before  he  read  the  topic  and  left  off.  A
            writer was back; she looked at the mass of her drafts papers story in
            her temper, and sorrow. While she had tried to set the drafts papers
            back in the order, she has been working on another business, so the
            mass  of  drafts  is  not  in  the  order  by  completely.  Again,  she  was
            leaving it on her desk, and for each time she had going out and be
            back, she saw it was mass up again by the different people, then at
            the same time she was continuing tried to put the drafts papers back
            in the order and writing again and again ... Until now her love story
            that she has been writing about it became


                the painful, sorrow, and complicated life between the rich and
            poor,

                between  hungry and  plentiful,  then  among  the  love  story  was
            the dirty war and the confusion of life,  which she was trying to set it
            back at the same time of her living. "  in the soft voice Phuong said.
            Then she looked at Nguyen.

                " I would like you to help me to set back my life in the order.
            What
