Dear lan.

Thanks a lot to for letter. Sorry i haven't answered before. I've been very busy to get ready ro go to Ho Chi Minh City. I was really sorry hearing you about your trouble with Lan, especially because it's been going on for so long. You ought to try making a decision soon. I think it's bad for both of you to go on as this. I think perhaps it will be better if you separated, but of course i might be wrong. I don't know Lan very well. You know, if i were you, i would go away alone dor a couple of weeks. If you were on yourself, you could think things out calm and decide what to do. Why don't you taking a holiday now? I'm sure it would do you a lot of goods. Write again soon and let me know how things are going. And don't forget to kiss your daughter, An for me. I hope everything would be OK for you

I'm looking for to your news
