Tam and Cam (Part II) After hurriedly washing up, Tam went back to the grass. “Oh no!”, she shouted out when she espied her empty basket. The tears sadly flew on her haggard face. Suddently, an elder with long silver beard called But appeared. He asked her tenderly: “Why are you crying , little girl?” “I lost all my fish, my mother will whip me” she sobbed. “Uhm, I’ve got it…so why don’t you check whatever something still remains?” Stopping crying and foraging all around her basket, “Just one fish…” she said. “Great!” Mr But nodded tenderly. Then he continued: “You bring it to your house and release it into a well. I will give you a tiny song to call it whenever you want to feed it. Now listen to me and memorize carfully, my girl: “Come on, come on my baby fish/Come here and eat your rice/Remember not to eat anything from strangers” She said thank you and goodbye to Mr But. After collecting all the nets, she stepped forward miserably back to her home. She knew what was waiting for her there. Following Mr But’s words, Tam went to the well and released the fish. Smiling at it she said: “Welcome to your new house, I will take care of you, don’t be afraid!” Suddently, Tam heard the laugh of the stepmother from the house: “Oh…excellent, girl!” The stepmother smoothed along Cam’s hair and said smilling at her. Then the stepmother turned to the basket and lifted one fish. “I can feel how delicious you are, a stupid fish!”, taking a look at the fish on her palm she said. With a bit of scare still alive inside Tam stepped slowly to and standed opposite to the stepmother. “Mother, I’m home!” she whispered. Turning to Tam and standing up, the stepmother said nothing for a while. Then she walked to and standed akimbo beside Tam and said: “Well, well…let me see how many fish you have…Uhmmmm…I’m sure it’s really so much that you’re back here up to this time!” Suddenly the stepmother shouted out aloud: “Oh! Look! There’s nothing at all! You’re kidding me, fool?” “I’m so sorry mom, this is because…” “Shut up! I don’t want to hear about your reason any more because you will always talk about something like, ah…ah…, like all faults coming from my baby innocent daughter!” the stepmother interrupted while Tam was saying. Then she continued: “Ok, the one who gets mistakes is always punished, It’s the rule of our family! Noone can’t break it! So what kind of punished form you want to receive, Tam?” “No,please…” Tam said crying.
