Knowing How to Give In to Younger Siblings

Today, Trúc's mother went to the airport to pick up their father.

Mother: Trúc, I'm going to pick up your father. Stay home and play with your little sister for me, okay?

Trúc: Yes, Mom. I understand.

Mother: Hạ My, remember to listen to your older sister, okay?

Hạ My: Yes!

Trúc and Hạ My: Be careful, Mom!

After their mother left, Trúc invited her sister to play doctor.

Trúc: Hạ My, let's play doctor! I'll be the doctor, and you can be the patient, okay?

Hạ My: No, today I want to be the doctor.

Trúc: But you're younger!

Hạ My: I'm big now. I even know how to brush my teeth by myself!

Trúc: No, I have to be the doctor.

Hạ My: Then I'm not playing with you anymore!

After saying that, Hạ My sat down and cried.

At that moment, Ms. Oanh came over.

Ms. Oanh: Trúc, why are you letting your sister cry?

Trúc: Because Hạ My won't listen to me.

Ms. Oanh: You're the older sister, so you should know how to give in to your younger sibling. I'm sure your mother has taught you that already.

After hearing Ms. Oanh's words, Trúc felt sad.

Trúc thought to herself: "I shouldn't make my little sister cry. I should love her and give in to her more."

A little later, Hạ My ran back home.

Hạ My: Sister Trúc! Ms. Oanh bought candy for me. I brought some home for you too.

Trúc: You're not mad at me anymore?

Hạ My: No.

Trúc: Thank you. Okay then, today you can be the doctor. I'll be the patient.

Hạ My: Really?

Trúc: Really. Let's go inside and play!

The two sisters happily played together.

A little while later, their parents returned home.

Father: Ha ha! My two little princesses are so well-behaved!

Hạ My: Dad's home!

Father: Your mother told me that today Trúc took care of her little sister. Very good!

Trúc: Yes, from now on I'll give in to my little sister more.

Mother: If you two are good, tonight the whole family will go out together!

Trúc and Hạ My: Yes! Yay! Hihi!
