"Believe me, there is nothing happen between him and me, and
you are so young. Are you a student? What school do you go to? I
love your age with so many dreams... "

" Yes, I was a student of Vo-Tanh Girl high school. I have no
dreams

except reading over the textbooks. " Tuyet replied.

Phuong looked at Tuyet with her curious eyes.

" Did you know the woman who came here to visit Nguyen? "

Phuong asked.

" Yes, I know some of them. They don't come here at the same
time. They come for a few days, then go like Miss Cuc, and Miss Lan,
and there is a beautiful lady, I didn't know her name, she drives a
Mercedes car. She seems to be in love with him. " Tuyet replied.

In a moment of emotion, Phuong tried to smile, but instead, she
looked at the floor to hid her moist eyes.

" I know ... Nguyen has many lovers...! " Phuong said.

Phuong thought about the woman, who had the Mercedes car.
Of course, she was a rich woman. Was she married? Maybe not!
Why did she come here ? Was Nguyen attracted by her money or
her body? No, he was not this kind of a man, and it was difficult to
keep him in one place, he was like a wild horse, which is freedom to
run and whinnying loudly on the countryside. However, what is it,
that hold their life to close? Phuong looked at Tuyet and asked :

" Tuyet, is she beautiful? "

" I thought... It seemed She was a noble lady."

" How do you know? "
