Dear Mommy,
It's winter already. Please take care of yourself, & don't get cold! Also, please remember to go to your appt for body check, it's good for you. I am fine, don't worry about me. Uncle sent me your picture. You still have a great sweet smile, & my friend said you just looked like 40+ years old. Of course, pretty mother brought out pretty daughter! 17th of this month will be godmother's birthday, & I have given her a pair of earrings & red pocket money as presents. She's only willing to accept me $300 as monthly rent, so I always take her out for dim sum or shopping whenever I have time. Also, since Ah Au moved out & let me have his room, I feel guilty for doing nothing. Thus, I always try to give her money. However, she isn't willing to accept more from me, she said let's wait until I earn more.
Father wrote me & said he might come to HK with you next year for traveling, is it true? I hope that this is true, as you need a partner to be with you for traveling. I also heard that Ah Tau would go to Europe (not confirmed yet), if so, I will ask him to bring you something. Please don't worry about me. Indeed, I really miss you; however, since everything here is not settled down yet, I can't put aside everything & come back. It's really hard for me to decide, so let God make a way for me!
Love, Lui Lui

親愛的媽咪：
不覺已漸入秋冬了，你要小心身體，不要著涼啊！記得到時到日去檢查身體，對妳是有益的，我一切安好，請勿太為我操心。保重自己為要，舅有寄信和妳的照片來，妳仍然笑得很甜，朋友說妳像四十來歲呢！當然，靚媽咪出靚女！代母十七號生日，送了對耳環和封了紅包給她，每個月她只肯收我三百蚊，故我常有空便請她飲茶或買些東西回家，因為亞牛搬出把房讓給我，真不好意思白住，故多多少少也要給，但她不肯要多，說等我遲些賺到錢時給吧！
父親來信說可能出年和妳一起回來一行，是嗎？如果真的就好，因為你有伴同行是好的，聞說亞豆要去歐洲（未定），到時我會托他帶東西給妳，一切一切你都不要掛心，我很擔心你的，但這裡一時放不下，真難做，正所謂「洗濕個頭」或一句「身不由己」！一切聽天吧！ 囡囡
