Thorn In The Heart

             "He was on his grandpa bedroom every night from the day
         you had left."

             Grandpa forgot Nguyen on his bed. He had excited with joy
         while he ran out from his room without his sandals.

             "Oh...Trinh, You came back home!"


             "Father... ! Where is my son?"

             Nguyen's  grandpa  looked  around  just  in  time  Nguyen
         appeared at his backside, and his Grandma lighted an oil-lamp
         on the living room table.

             Nguyen cried and ran toward his mother arms.

             "Mom...!"  In an emotion of joy, he called.


             Nguyen's mother holds him in her arms. She looked at her
         mother-in-law.

             "No...! Mom, do not light a lamp, very dangerous."  In hurry
         and worry voice, she said.

             Nguyen's grandma blew a light, and four people sat on the
         floor in the living room.


             Nguyen's  mother  looked  at  Nguyen's  grandparent  in  a
         moment of the sorrow emotion.


             "I am very sorry. I must take my son with me tonight. I do
         not know when I will be back, and I do not want both of you
         living alone at this time of your old ages, but I had nothing more
         to choose."  In the sorrow voice, Nguyen's mother said.


             "Do  you  want  to  go  right  now?"    Nguyen's  grandma  said
         while she was crying.
