Il l'a emmenée dans l'automobile noire. C'est à Cholen. C'est à l'opposé des boulevards 46 qui relient la ville chinoise au centre de Saigon, ces grandes voies à l'américaine silonnées par les tramways, les pousse-pousse, les cars. C'est tôt dans l'après-midi. Elle a échappé à la promenade obli­ gatoire des jeunes filles du pensionnat. C'est un compartiment au sud de la ville. L'en­ droit est moderne, meublé à la va-vite dirait-on, avec des meubles de principe modern style. Il dit je n'ai pas choisi les meubles .

Il est celui qui passait le Mékong ce jour-là en direction de Saigon. - Elle entre dans l'auto noire. La portière se re­ ferme. Une détresse à peine ressentie se produit tout à coup, une fatigue, la lumière sur le fleuve qui se ternit, mais à peine. Une surdité très légère aussi, un brouillard, partout. Je ne ferai plus jamais le voyage en car pour indigènes . Dorénavant , j'aurai une limousine pour aller au lycée et me ramener à la pens ion . Je dtnerai dans les endroits les plus élégants de la ville.

C'est aussi là, à quelques jours de la mort de son mari, en pleine nuit àussi, que ma mère s'est trouvée face à l'image de son père, de son père à elle. Elle allume. Il est là. Il se tient près de la table, debout, dans le grand salon octogonal du palais . Il la re­ garde. Je me souviens d 'un hurlement, d'un appel. Elle nous a réveillés, elle nous a raconté l 'histoire, comment il était habillé, dans son costume du dimanche, gris, comment il se tenait, et son regard, droit sur elle. Elle dit je l'ai appelé comme quand j 'étais petite.
