Daughters Of The Dragon: A Comfort Woman's Story - Plot & Excerpts
Soo-bo said, inches from my face. I blinked sleep from my eyes. Standing in front of me was my daughter, ready to begin her day. The morning light was still low and I needed more sleep. I ached from long hours of hard work. But I didn’t mind. I had saved Soo-bo from starving. My daughter had filled out since we arrived at the kijichon ten months earlier. She was still thin and often had long spells of fever. But at the kijichon, she was able to eat every day and I was greatly relieved. I loved her more than I had ever thought possible. I took sublime joy in dressing her, her playfulness, and her four-year-old mannerisms. Still, Soo-bo struggled with the simple lessons I gave her. Sometimes she slipped into dark moods and I worried about her strength. I stroked Soo-bo’s hair. “You’re awake so early, little one.” “I’m hungry, Ummah,” my daughter said. “Will you tell me more of our story?” I swung myself to the edge of the bed.
