She Leaves

I went to a pho shop for breakfast. It was duck pho, and it was nice. Before that, I stopped by a laundry shop to pick up my laundry. After that, I visited a cafe to have a coffee. It was a hot day. In the evening, Eri and I went to a local restaurant for dinner. I was not in a good mood. I was irritated about the payment. I paid for everything for her. It was too much. She left the hotel around 10 pm, and I saw her off on the roadside of the main road. She headed to the airport by taxi. I bought banh mi and some canned beer. I had them in my hotel room.

I fell asleep around 1 am.
