One day a couple months ago, i was fed up with work and drove over to My's salon to see what Trang and the gang were up to. My had moved already, and she had given the salon to Trang.
I told Trang I wanted to take a joy ride out to District 2 to see some of the countryside. Trang wasn't too busy and wanted to come with. She gussied up a bit (which i thought was cute), and about that time Na was getting off school, so we picked her up on the way. We told her we were going for a ride, which was just fine with her.
With Trang behind me and Na in front with her arms crossed on the console, we crossed the Saigon river into a decidedly more green District 2. Na asked where we were going. Trang told her "America". Na threw up her hands and said "YEA!!", but she knew we were kidding.
With the wind in my face and the sun approaching the perfect angle, and with two beautiful companions and an escape from the work desk, I remember thinking to myself, "now isn't this nice."
It's the little things that make it all worthwhile.
