Dear big brother!
Today is Saturday and I have a day off from school. Since you've been sick and had to go to the hospital, I've been really worried. I'm still young and get car sick easily, so I couldn't go with mom to your apartment to check on you. So, I'm just writing this letter to ask about you. You're a very strong and resilient guy, and this illness is probably just because you've been studying and working too hard. Please rest more. When I get sick at home, it's usually just a runny nose and a few cold pills make me feel better. Plus, I have mom taking care of me, cooking porridge, so I recover quickly. Are you all alone there? Please take care of yourself. I believe you've grown up and become independent, so there's no obstacle you can't overcome. I've packed your favorite fruits for you: apples, grapes, and pears. Mom will bring them to you. Remember to eat a lot to get well soon and come home to play with me!
I promise that when you come back, I'll be much bigger so we can play badminton together, exercise, and work on our fitness. Please come home soon to play with me!
Your little sister
Trà My

Dear Sister,
It's been over three months since you left home for school. During the first few days in Saigon, you used to brag to me about how the weather there was often pleasant, with frequent rain and sunshine, making it cool and comfortable. Yet, due to the difference in climate, you've been severely ill and haven't recovered. Today, I'm writing this letter, unable to send you medicine, but I believe my words will serve as a dose of spiritual medicine for you to forget the fatigue of illness. You still remember the times when I was sick, and you took care of me, putting a cold compress on my forehead, spoon-feeding me porridge, and even reading funny stories to me. I wish I could be by your side now, taking care of you as you did for me when I was sick. Remember your advice to me before, that when sick, one should not skip meals, stay up late, or do homework? You must follow that too. Health is more important than anything else; you must eat to recover. If you crave something delicious, just buy plenty of it. Don't try to save money when you're sick. I'll send you my savings to cover for you. Take care of your health and studies, sis!
I hope you get well soon and finish your exams, then come home to visit us!
Your little sister,
Uyen Nhi
