My father died suddenly.
:01:01
I only found out last night.
:01:03
The mayor informed me by phone.
:01:06
I couldn't believe it.
:01:09
My hometown is Sanhetun,
a village in the mountains.
:01:14
I left home to work in the city.
:01:17
I was so busy
that I haven't been back in years.
:01:21
My father was the village schoolteacher.
:01:23
He taught there all his life.
:01:27
I am the only child...
:01:29
...the only one from our village
who went to college.
:01:33
I am very worried about my mother.
:01:36
I am afraid she can not
cope with this sudden change.
