Mood swings

Everyone knows the stories about the husband who has to go out in the middle of the night searching for something strange that his pregnant wife wants to eat... Well today was the first time that Thao wanted me to go out and get her something. Luckily it was only pho, and at lunchtime... She had to write down on a piece of paper what I should say, since my Vietnamese is still a bit rusty. She didn't want me coming back with a pig heart instead of pho!

Normally I drive her on the motorbike whenever we go out, but since I would go alone this time she was a bit worried. She told me about 20 times to drive slow and be careful, but finally she let me go...

So off I went on the motorbike around the corner to the pho restaurant. It didn't take very long before I got our lunch and came back to the apartment... But when I got off the elevator I saw Thao standing in the open doorway crying! .... "Oh my god, what's wrong?!" I asked... It turns out that she was so worried about me going by myself that she couldn't do anything, and had to stay by the door praying for me to come back safely!

So I wiped her tears away and fed her some good pho, and then she was feeling better. She said she would never let me go anywhere by myself again! :)
