Chapter 29
Chapter 29 — The Fateful Trial
Not because I hate her. It's just that my life finally doesn't want to revolve around them anymore. A month later, Ha Tuan and I filed for divorce. He divided all the common property that belonged to me to me, and at the same time actively gave up the right to fight for An An's upbringing. On the day of the divorce, he stood in front of the Civil Affairs Department, his voice hoarse: "Duong Hoa, can you still visit An An?" I held the baby and calmly looked at him: "Wait until you learn how to be a person who doesn't lie." He bowed his head and didn't say another word. As time passed, An An learned to turn over. The boy lay on his stomach on the small mattress, struggling to raise his head, grinning at me. The sunlight shines on my face, clear as if nothing had ever happened. I took out the brand new household registration and kept it carefully in the safe. Then bent down and gently kissed the child's forehead.
“An An.”
“I got your name back.”
