The Girl (A confusing Story)
15 years, 2 months & 19 days ago
27th Aug 2009 08:31 The Taxi driver was driving down the streets in vietnam to get some late tea because it was 9:00pm. The man was just about to turn over the corner when he realised a little girl under the shade of a banyan tree. The little girl looked lost and the Taxi driver felt sorry for her. The taxi man pulled up in front of the banyan tree and asked the little girl if she was lost. Because it was dark and rainy that day the little girl was to frightened to speak. "Come now where do u live?" The taxi man asked softly. The little girl told him her name was Phuong and lived up right by the city which was 5minutes away. The taxi man drove up a drive and the little girl continued. "Stop here plz" The taxi man told her to stay in the car while he went up to the door. The taxi man knocked lightly on the door and a 50 year old woman opened it. "Hello ive just collected your daughter." The taxi man told the woman. "What are you playing at!" The woman said angrily then thoughts came back to her. "What is it?"
"My daughter died 20 years ago when she was 8. She was called Phuong."
"I am terribly sorry madam. How did she die?"
"Well she was shading under a banyan tree which is 5minutes away from here and a taxi driver was next to a turning it was raining so hardly that day that his car skid and slammed into the banyan tree where my daughter was shading. Now get out of my site! Dont make fun of when she died!" The woman slammed the door hardly.
The taxi man crossly walked up to his car, just about to tell the girl that she was wrong to go to this house, but the girl was not there...
Vietnam beliefs: Vietnamese people used to believe that banyan trees lead to underworlds and they also believed ghosts hid in the branches.
