Duyen Ma (Duyên Ma)

I'm Minh. My mother passed away a long time ago,

so I've lived with my Dad since I was a child.

Then, one day, his grief for my mother grew,

so he died to be with her.

Therefore, I've lived alone ever since.

Dream?

Sure, I have one.

My dream is quite splendid.

Someday I'll be…

Wait. Hold on. I'm starving. Wait.

I need to eat before going to work.

Girlfriend? Not yet, not a single one.

I strongly believe my one true love will come to me soon.

She must be cute,

nice,

and must be kind.

And the day has come.

Yeah!

How do you know?

Oh my gosh! I've just bought one,

a piece of land.

-How big is it? -What?

Hey, mister? Mister?

Mister?

Are you OK, mister?

Mister?

How scary!

Hey, mister?

Mister?

Please pick up the phone, honey.

Honey?

Honey?

I ran over a man.

I'm not dead, yet.

-Haven't you? -Not yet!

Are you okay?

I'm fine. Just a slight pain in my butt.

Your butt's hurt?

-Are you hurt here? -Yes!

If your lower part is hurt, you may be impotent.

If it's severe, you might not have kids.

Let's go to hospital.

It's really alright.

Do you have a wife?

Don't say a thing. I knew it.

Still single?

Any girlfriends?

Not a single one!

Such a big fat stiff face.

Life gets hard if you get married early.

What's wrong?

What's wrong with you?

My head is aching.

Headache?

You talk too much.

My my! See!

Weird, right? I haven't said anything.

I haven't said a word.

I just want to know if you're fine or not.

I haven't said anything but you claim I give you a headache.

How can you be such a prick? Where's your manners?

I can't believe it!

Have a headache?

-Here! -No, I'm not taking it.

Keep it.

I'm going.

I'm telling you this.

Use deodorant before going out.

Your armpits smell gross!

Ngoc.

What?

-Hey! -What's wrong?

Can you come to the fair tonight?

I heard they'll host a "Lô tô" show tonight.

You go. I have a date already.

A date with a guy?

Not at all. You forget today is the full moon, don't you?

Oh.

A date with a ghost friend?

Yes.

I was so busy that I forgot

to make offerings.

Grab me something for the offerings.

Go get it yourself.

Get one of each item.

That's right. Take it.

Do you have a lottery ticket?

I'll take it as an offering.

Buddha will bless you!

Hey Ngoc.

What?

Did you pay the electric bill?

Your house is barely lit!

I paid the bill.

If not, how are the light bulbs on and off?

Stop teasing her. She's scared.

What?

Who? Who is that?

Who teases whom?

He said you're pretty!

-Who is he? -My friend.

Stop.

Tell him I haven't been adolescent.

Ask him what he likes for tomorrow.

I like you so much!

It's our time. Let's have some fun, everyone!

-Ngoc. -What?

Offer me a pair of high heels.

Slippers are old-fashioned. I don't wear them now.

We are in a good mood, don't drag it down.

Let's play as long as you like!

-Yes -That's alright.

Raise your hand and we'll be together forever?

Who are you messing with?

Things are going very well!

Where is my hand?

Raise your feet then.

-Oh! -That's what it is.

What's wrong?

What? Who?

Why are you irritated?

I'm not irritated.

-Then why are you angry? -When?

Stop!

We are family, and family has to play hard together.

-Yes! -Correct!

A family has to play hard together.

Wow!

-Is it fun? Is it fun? -Yes, it is so fun!

The air is breezing!

It's nice to have Ngoc take us to go out!

-I'm telling you. -Yes!

Oh my, being ridden like this reminds me of days when I was little.

-Yes! -When I was with my first love.

-Oh? -Unexpected.

It was so romantic and lovely!

Back then, I was wearing a white "ao dai",

hair pulled to the sides, such a lovely little girl!

Then he took me across the two sides of tamarind trees.

The leaves were flying.

With rows of flame trees.

How romantic it was!

Was that person revving the engine like me?

My gosh, his driving is pretty decent. Nothing like you!

Hey, hey.

I haven't heard about him.

Who was he?

He's a driver.

-My gosh! -I Can't believe it!

Nothing similar to a sweet memory.

Let me be candid. Guess what, Ngoc?

This brings back so many memories

-when I was alive. -Oh!

I went on "a stormy tour".

-Oh…! -Rev the engine with maximum speed.

Oh…!

Saying "Vietnam is the best,"

or "Vietnam is invincible."

Ngoc, floor it.

Okay! Let's go…

What is it?

Get off, get off.

Hello, mister. We have an accident here.

At the Cay Xoai crossroad.

Oh…

He's dead!

Yes! Please come at once.

Yes!

So scary!

The motorbike is scratched!

Hey guys.

May I ask where is the way

to Thanh Xuan market?

Go straight ahead and turn right.

How is he so cold?

Indifferent even if there's an accident!

Ah!

Why am I lying there and standing here

-You're dead! -You're dead already!

Oh my God! Why scream so loudly just because you're dead?

My my! You're overreacting too.

You've never seen a ghost?

Look at the way he screams his lungs out.

It's a common thing for someone who has just died.

What kind of nonsense are you talking about?

How can I be dead?

You just have to look.

There are skid marks. Did you get hit by a car a while ago?

Correct!

Earlier,

someone just hit me.

I even talked to that person.

She even threw me some money.

I got it.

Let me explain it to you.

When you fell off earlier, you hit your head.

That was when you got brain damage.

After you finished your negotiation with the car owner,

the blood accumulated in your brain.

Do you get it now?
