I quickly check all over the kitchen and it wasn’t there but I remember my dad would always hid
stuff in the couch so I checked the couch and I didn’t find anything until I looked under it. I
found a lot of letters and I also found a key.
“I FOUND IT” I said as I ran to the door.
I had put the key in the keyhole and it fit perfectly. I turned the knob opened not to know what to
expect. I opened the door with Bian and Vinh behind me and I was astonished at what I saw.
I couldn’t believe my mother had committed suicide, she left Vinh and I alone. How could she
do that?
Her body was lying on the floor with blood flowing out of her. Bian checked to see if she had a
pulse but she didn’t. I couldn’t save my mother; which caused a lot of guilt on me. I saw that my
mother had left a letter and so I grabbed the letter over the pool of blood my mother was
creating.
Dear Vinh and Chi,
Don’t be upset that I have died and I am sorry I had to leave you. I couldn’t deal with the fact
that your father left me alone, and it made me go insane. I love you Vinh and Chi. You need to
live with grandma and I have money for your weddings. Your grandmother knows exactly where
it is. I already talked to your grandma about it. Chi, I hope you marry Bian and have a beautiful
life together. Vinh, I hope you have a beautiful life ahead of you. My blessing are with you all
and I hope to see you in my next life.
Love your mother
Mai Sinh
I was happy I got some words from my mother about why instead of just leaving Vinh and I.
“Vinh, we need to get to grandmas”, I said.
