TEARS OF SUFFERING

giggled. “I think I must leave. Bye, Au.”
“Bye. Do visit me again.”
“Sure,” she said as she scurried out.
She visited him again the next day, but Au Lham and

sleeping. Why?”
“Just wanted to see him,” she replied in a low-toned of
voice. “He told me to come.”

wrenched. “Oh, really?”
She strode into the room without hesitation. Ugyen
watched her in bafflement. With a sharp pain in his heart,
he entered the kitchen to help Au Lham.
“Who is it?” asked Au Lham.
