📕After her mother’s funeral, the author and her father decided to go somewhere they could rest. They chose Vietnam because of the strong value of the American dollar. When they arrived at the hotel, some people often misunderstood their relationship, mistaking them for a couple instead of father and daughter. Despite their efforts to clarify, they couldn't muster the courage to mention Chongmi's death. One day during their trip, they had a disagreement and spent time apart.

Upon returning to the hotel, the author saw her father sitting on a couch with a somber expression. The following day, they encountered the morning buffet and silently agreed to continue their journey together.
