I don't have a husband.

Then for your boyfriend.

I don't have a boyfriend.

How many have you sold tonight?

It's my first night on the job.

I didn't have a story

to tell people.

But now I do.

What do you tell them?

I tell them it's my birthday.

And it's not your birthday?

My birthday's next month.

You shouldn't tell lies.

You try selling roses

on the streets.

Want some noodle soup?

Another bowl of soup here!

I'll take two roses.

I thought you said

you didn't have a boyfriend.

You need the business.

Thanks again.

Good day.

the neighborhood?

No, sir.

Are you sure?

Thanks, anyway.

Hello, girls. Can you help me?

Have you seen this girl

around the neighborhood?

No, sir.

Are you sure?

Noodle soup, anyone?

Seen this girl aroumd?

Not her.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

I know aIl the girls in

this neighborhood.

I've never seen this one.

- You're not lying to me?

Want some yummy noodle soup?

Little girl!

Elephants like sugar cane.

Kids like to feed

Go ahead and feed it.

I saw you selling postcards

at the cafe yesterday.

I sell roses now.

You work here at the zoo?

Yeah.

I take care of the animals.

You like elephants?

Elephants are cute.

You know,

The cutest animals can be the most dangerous.

A lot of visitors

are accidentally killed

by elephants.

If you get too close,

they will crush you flat.

Here, take one.

I have to go back to work.

Still here?

Their beats are like razors.

And those tiggers over there.

They look peaceful,

but they'll rip off your head.

What about pigs?

Farm pigs are harmless.

But wild piggs ame vicious.

Don't you have to go to school?

No.

You're wearing a school uniform.

I have to for my work.

Don't you have more flowers to sell?

I have a lot of work to do.

Alright.

Down, boy.

Have a seat.

Don't be scared.

He won't bite.

You're not married?

You ask a lot of questions.

I'm sorry.

I was planning on

getting married last month.

To the woman in the photo?

Yeah.

Her name's Phuong.

I don't like Phuong's.

Phuong's are all liars.

I have a friend name Phuong.

She always steals money

from her mom's purse.

My Phuong...

...is not a liar.

She just changed her mind.

She'll change it back.

Women change their minds

all the time.

Eat up.

Not hungry?

- Your monkey's crazy.

- Oh, yeah?

My two cousins at the hotel

talk about you all the time.

Lan, the flight attendant...

...always coming. always going.

Your cousins anre sweet girls.

They say you work for the city?

At the office, I process papers.

It's okay, I guess.
