Hey Arnold! · 434 quotes
Mr. HyunhMany years ago, I lived in another country, far away. I was a young man with a family. A beautiful baby girl, I call her Mai. I was the luckiest man in the world. At night, I used to dream about our future together. To watch Mai grow up and go to school. To see her be happy. But there was trouble in my country. There was a war in the North, and every day, the fighting was coming closer and closer. I knew this would not be a good place for my child to grow up. I could not keep her safe, maybe not even have enough food for her to eat. So I decided we must try to get out. We must try to find a better life. Everyone was trying to get out. Everywhere, there was confusion. Somehow, I got through. The only way out of the city was by helicopter. There were too many people. I begged the soldier "Please! Please take us! Help us find a new life!", but he could not. He said there was only room for one of us. Then, I had to make the most difficult decision of my life. I knew I had to do the best thing for Mai. I knew if I gave Mai to the soldier, they would take care of her. They would find a home for her, and then, as soon as I could, I would get out of the country and find her again. As the helicopter left, the soldier called out the name of a city.
