Chapter 2 — My Sister

“Duong Duong is sleeping.” “Open the video!” The other side of the phone was silent for two seconds. "Hello? Hello? The waves are not good!" Then turn off the machine. My mother stood on the side of the road, her whole body wobbling a bit. “She lied to me, she is my biological sister!” My father showed the phone to her. Positioning is still at the back door of the old shopping center. His voice was very low. “She keeps lying to me.” I pointed to the small road ahead. "Back door! Go from there!" The road leading to the back door of the old shopping center is very narrow. On the side of the road are piles of old cardboard boxes and broken advertising signs. Normally not many people go. As soon as my dad turned in, I heard the car door make a sound. Boom. Like the sound in a nightmare from a previous life. My whole body was cold. "Dad! Car!" My father's footsteps became faster. My mother behind me shouted: "Lam Nhu!" No one replied. Only the wind blew the old advertising canvas flapping. As soon as I ran to the back door of the old shopping center, I saw a gray van parked on the side of the road. The rear of the car is facing us. The back door opens. A man in a baseball cap was hunched over, stuffing a bulging pink backpack into the back seat. That's not Duong Duong's backpack. Today, Duong Duong went out without wearing a backpack. But I took a glance and saw something on the ground. Pink hair clip. The pink hairpin the youngest aunt just clipped to Duong Duong. There are also a few soft strands of hair wrapped around the teeth of the clip. There was an explosion in my head. “Duong Duong!” The man in the cap suddenly turned his head. Next to the car, Lam Nhu also turned around. When she saw us, her face immediately turned white. "Sister? Brother-in-law? Why are you two here?" My mother rushed forward. “Where is Duong Duong?” Lam Nhu blocked the car door. “Duong Duong is trying on dresses in the store in front.” I shouted. “You lie!” I got off my dad's lap and ran towards the car. Lam Nhu reached out to shake me. “Tu Tue, don't make trouble!” I opened my mouth and bit her hand. This time, I bit down very hard, the taste of blood rising. She was in so much pain that she screamed. “Ah!” I took the opportunity to rush to the side of the car and use force to smash the car door. "Duong Duong! Duong Duong!" There was no sound in the car. But the little red dot of the phone clock is here. My dad also saw it. He yanked Lam Nhu away. “Get away!” Lam Nhu cried and stopped. "Brother-in-law, what are you doing? That's my friend's car, it's full of photo props inside!" My mother picked up the hairpin from the ground. She looked at the hair strands in the clip's teeth, her hands were shaking so much that she could barely hold them. “Lam Nhu, where is Duong Duong?” Lam Nhu's eyes panicked in an instant. Very quickly I cried again. "Sister, why do you listen to Tue Tue's nonsense? You are his biological aunt, can you still harm him?" The driver sat in the driver's seat. Hands placed on the steering wheel. The car lights light up. The man wearing a baseball cap also turned around and wanted to get in the car. My father's face suddenly changed. “Stop the car!” The man said a sentence. “Are you sick?” I saw through the car window a bit of pink sleeve showing. Today Duong Duong is wearing pink sleeves. I rushed to pull the car door, but my hands were too small, no matter how much I pulled, I couldn't open it. My throat immediately became hoarse and tears fell. “Duong Duong is in the car!” “Dad, stop him!” My father stuffed me into my mother's arms, the whole person rushed forward, holding tightly to the back door of the van. The driver stepped on the accelerator. The car body suddenly rushed forward. My father was dragged and staggered a bit, his knees almost hitting the ground. But his hand did not let go. “Stop the car!” His voice was like a split piece of wood, hoarse and horrifying. The driver cursed and wanted to continue stepping on the accelerator. The grocery store owner heard the movement and stuck his head out. “What are you doing?” I cried until my voice was hoarse, pointing at the car and screaming. “Bad uncle stole my sister!” “Duong Duong is inside!” Two people wearing security uniforms next to them also ran over. Lam Nhu immediately cried. "Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! This is my niece, just a child being angry!" My mother hugged me, her hands still shaking. She still hasn't fully reacted yet. Until the GPS device in my hand was still ringing. Tittle tick tick. The little red dot is right in front of us. The sister is in the car. My mother raised her head to look at Lam Nhu, her eyes were red

g afraid. “Where is Duong Duong?” Lam Nhu's lips turned white, but she still tried to resist. "Didn't you tell me, I'm trying on dresses at the store in front. In the car are photo props." My mother picked up the pink hairpin from the ground. On the teeth of the clip are a few soft strands of hair. Duong Duong's hair is so soft that after washing it, it sticks to her forehead. My mother glanced at me and realized. Her voice trembled. “So why is her hairpin here?” Lam Nhu's eyes panicked a bit. “Maybe… maybe just fell away.” I shouted. "Lie!" The man wearing a baseball cap went around behind my father and pushed him. "Let go! Don't block the way!" My father turned around and punched me straight. The man was defenseless and fell backwards, hitting the car door. The driver saw someone approaching and was impatient and wanted to lock the door.
