At last, she left, laid one shoe on the bridge. She wanted him to know that she had come and also that’s also a way she blamed him implicitly.
Few hours later, Quoc Hoa finished but it only had few hours for the sun rose. He hurriedly run toward the place but none’s here. Some sweet smell came in his nostrils he looked around to find the thing and what he saw was a shoe which belonged to his lover. He knew her implication at one.

Thi didn’t need to try on the shoe, she at one sprinted to Quoc Hoa, kneeled and hugged him. She cried crying more loudly than even people, his relatives that made people who was in there got much more pained.
One more time no one knew why but Quoc Hoa revived. Slowly and lightly he got again his breathes. His body was warmed by his lover’s body. He woke up and it seemed he just got a sleep he stupidly asked everybody.
“What’s going on here? I think I must be on East bridge. Why am I here?”
