“Yes”, Vinh said.
“Bian would you like to join us”, I said.
“I would love to”, Bian said.
I held Bian’s hand because she was the only one I had other than Vinh. I towered over Bian to
enlighten the situation for everyone as she looked above me in the eyes. I stared into her brown
beautiful eyes until vinh had tapped on me saying “come on, you can do your lovey stuff later”.
“Sorry”, I said to vinh.
Vinh, Bian, and I all got onto the train. We sat down together. I looked out of the window of the
train to see that we were almost to my grandma’s house. The train had stopped and I got off the
train with Vinh and Bian. As soon as we got off the train I saw Ngo Dinh Diem’s men getting
Buddhist. I stayed calm until they took Vinh.
“Vinh”, I screamed out.
“Chi”, Vinh called out to me
“Shut up or you will just get killed right here”, One of Diem’s men said.
“Vinh be quiet”, I said.
“No. Chi, tell him to let me go”. Vinh said.
“DON’T JUST STAND THERE. DO SOMETHING CHI”, Vinh was screaming.
“That’s it”, One of Diem’s men said as he held the gun to her.
Vinh was crying and I couldn’t do anything because the other men were trying to get Bian and I.
A gun shot fired at Vinh and she had died. I screamed when it happened because I had lost my
third family member today. I punched the men and Bian tried to the same. I had escaped and now
I was helping Bian escape. I got Bian’s hand out of the tight ropes the men had put her in. I
grabbed Bian’s hand and we ran until we had finally got to my grandma’s house.
