Tuyet looked at Phuong and said with a nod.

" Miss Phuong, Don't cry, please ! I will be a good student. I still
do not understand why uncle Nguyen doesn't love you...?

Phuong wiped her tears and said :

" Yes, I will not cry...! What was I to him...? Maybe, it was the
same state of the women, who came in his life, then went...! But I
plan to stay here until he changes his mind... Tuyet, what grade are
you in now? Do you have a lot of friends in school? "
Phuong asked and changing the subject .

you. If he had mail, you would bring it to him. " Phuong said.

Tuyet had a little fear. She laughed as like as a cricket.

" You are beautiful and attractive; if I am a man, I will fall in love
with you. Why does uncle Nguyen not know that? Maybe he had
you oversleeping, so he does not know what you were. " Tuyet said.

Phuong looked at Tuyet with a little smile.
