Thorn In The Heart

"No, I did not meet him. but I heard a voice as his voice."

Grandma holds Nguyen's mother hand. In an emotion, she
was crying and said:

"It was him! Because he lived in this family from he was
born. His voice you could not be wrong. He let you free?"

Nguyen's mother shook her head and looked at her mother
in law.

"Mom. I was not sure his voice. I may be wrong!" In her
sorrow voice, she said.

"Who let you free?"

"French troops! They helped me out of the dark room and
let me free."

Nguyen's grandma took a look over Nguyen's mother with
her sorrow eyes and sighed. It reminded her of the village
battlefield of two years ago with so many things painful
suffering. French soldiers and Vietminh killed and raped a lot of
the young person in the village. The houses were burned down
and still there with broken without a fix or rebuilt. It happened
so fast, so painful and many sorrow things for victims.

Grandma held Nguyen's mother and stared on her face.

"Oh... my God! What did they do for you?" She asked.

"No...! They did not do anything."

"God bless you all." In a wonder Nguyen's grandmas
continue:

"Why they let you free?"
