Movings

Chapter 1
It was their final day in Canada, it was off to Vietnam they went.

Rachel was packing her things, while Dinh helped Annie with her things.

"Mommy, Daddy, where are we going to live in Vietnam?" Annie asked her parents.

"Ho Chi Minh City." Rachel replied.

"Who was Ho Chi Minh, mommy?" She asked.

Dinh and Rachel looked at eachother before settling with an answer and an explanation.

"Ho Chi Minh, darling, was a communist and nationalist leader of Vietnam, remember hoe the Chinese have Mao Zedong? Well, in Vietnam, we have Ho Chi Minh, but keep in mind, some Vietnamese like him and some others dislike him, especially the older generation in South Vietnam, so, be careful about praising him, okay darling?" Dinh explained and asked her.

"It also used to be known as Saigon, which is what most Vietnamese outside Vietnam call it." Rachel said.

"You know lots about it, was there any conflicts that Vietnam was in?" She asked.

"Well, there was the Cambodian-Vietnamese war, and, just like Vietnam, Cambodia was also communist, but, unlike Vietnam, Cambodia's Khmer Rouge turned out to be even worse than the North Vietnamese communist regime, Pol Pot, Khmer Rouge's leader, was not a very nice man, he sent the country back into the stone-age by executing anyone who knew Vietnamese, was Vietnamese, looked Vietnamese, wore glasses, knew a second language, and isolated the country, killing 40% of Cambodia's population, and it wasn't just Cambodians, Chinese, Vietnamese, journalists and anyone accused of treason was killed." He said, quite nervously.

After six hours, they finished packing and it was 8:00 pm, Annie was still awake and in her booster seat.
