            Ei aku no maloko aku o kekahi o na rumi o ko olua hale nei ma kekahi o kona mea lawelawe a me ke keiki pu no a olua, ua hanau iho nei oia i ka olua keikikane oiwi kilakila, a ka ua lohe iho nei makou; e hiki mai ana o Majour e hoolaa i ke keiki ma ka inoa o Moloka ko kakou akua e hoomalu la i na la palapa o Gehena,” wahi a lakou i puana like mai ai.

            Kaha aku la ua Hinoma la no kahi a kana wahine e lulumi mai la me kona wahi kokoolua.  Ma ka puka o ua wahi ruini la, ku iho la ua kanaka la a kikeke aku la, me ke kahea pu ana aku hoi     “Auhea la oe e kuu Amora aloha, e wehe mai oo i ka puka i ike aku ai au ia oe, eia wau o kau kane mai kahi loihi loa mai nei.”

            Eleu mai la kahi kokoolua o Amora i ke kii ana e wehe ae i ka puka no kona kane, a ua loaa pono hoi ia Amora no noonoo maikai, a e nolio ana oia iluna me kana bebe no ma konapoli, a koe wale no ka upehupehu o na maka i ka mea o ka noke mau ana i ka uwe.

            I ka hemo ana o ka puka, komo mai.  Ia ua Hinoma la a ma ke alo ponoi o kana wahine, pepelu iho la kona mau kuli imua ona hopu iho la i ka lima o kana wahine a honi iho.  Oia ka ka manawa i ninini makawalu iho ai o Amora i kona mau waimaka, me ka uwe kaukau ana iho ma na pepeiao o kana kane ah ha:

            “E kuu kane Hinoma aloha e, eia maua me ka kaua makahiapo imua ou       Auwe kuu kaumaha no ka kaua keiki    E kuu kane e!”

            Na keia mau mapuna leo i poha pono iho ma na pepeiao o Hinoma, i hoomohala pono ae i kona mau noonoo uahoa no ka manawa pokole, a nana pololei aku la maluna o na helehelena o kana wahine, i hele walea upehupehu na maka i ka ka mea o ka noke mau i ka uwe, a pane aku la kana kane:

            “Pehea na pono o ko kaua kihapai      ua pau anei ka ai i ke oki?”

            “Ua liolopono ia mau mea a pau, a ua hoolako aku, au i na poe paua me na mea kupono.”  A hoomaka aku la kana wahine e hoike i na mea a pau e pili ana i ka lawelawe ana o na poe paaua’ ka nui o na mea i haawiia i ka nui o na mea i haawiia i ka lehulehu, a hiki wale i kona hoomaks ana e hele ma kana huakai mua a noho ai oia malalo o ke kumulaau oliva, a me ka hoomaka ana e nahunahu o kona opu.

            Maanei o Amora i hoomaha iki iho ai me ka paa ana ae i kona hina hema ma kona umauma, a kulon iho la maluna o kaua keiki.

            No keia kulou ana iho o Amora ilalo ua piha loa ua Hinoma la i ka hoonauki no ke oki pu anu o kana mau kamilio ana, a nolaila, ua nonau hookikina aku la kana kaue.

“Pohea hou aku ka hoi            malalo auei o kela kuma oliva i hanau ai oe i kena keiki?”

“aole, aka, malaila au i ehaeha loa ai kuu naau nou e ka’u mea aloha.”

O ka oiaio nae, ua eha loa no kona manao no ka laua keiki, oiai aole oia i ike aku i ke ano oluolu mai o kaona helehelena, a oia no kana i koho e iho ai iloko ona     “e make io ana no ka ke keiki ma na lima wela o kela kii keleawe.”

Nolaila, hoomau hou aku la ua oia i kana hoike ana i ua mea a pau e pili ana iaia, a hiki wale i kona hanau ana mai i ua keiki nei, ka mea hoi nona keia nanea a kakou e hoohialani nei, a hiki wale i ka manawa a laua i halawai iho la.

Iaia no nae e hoomau la i ke kamailio, aia no he mea i kuia mau i kona noonoo mamuli o kela keiki a Hinoma i lawe mai ai mai Seba o Arabia mai, aka alia oia e hoopuka aku ia mea ia wa.

“Ae, ua ike mua no au e hanau ana io ana oe i keiki na kaua, i keiki makahiapo hoi, aka na ike no oe, he keiki keia ua lilo mua kona ola oiai oia iloko o kou opu, a ua ike no hoi oe, aole loa e hiki i kekahi mau makua i honau he keiki makahiapo elike me ka kaua i keia wa e pakele ana kahi o ia mau keiki mai na lima mana mai o Moloka ko kakou, a ua ike no hoi oe, he kanawai paa loa ia i hiki ole ia kaua ke pale ae.

“A no ia kumu, ua ku ao au a haalele hikiwawe iho ia oe, a hele aku au ma ka’u huakai hele, no ka imi ana i pani no ka hua o ka puhaka o kaua, no ka mea, he oiaio no e make ana oia, a o keia keiki a’u i lawe mai nei, oia auanei ke pani ma kona hakahaka, i hoomaalili ia ai ko kaua aloha maluna o ka kaua ponoi i hanau mai ai.”

Ikeia ma@ a Amora i lohe pono ai i ka manao o kana kane no ko laua keiki, a me ke kumu o ke kii ia ana e kela keiki, aole i kanamai ka nui o kona kaumaha a na ka waimaka no e hele.  A no ka manawa pokole keia uwe ana, a no ka hiki ole iaia e hoomanawanui iho, ua pane aku la oia i kana kane:

“Alaila, ua paa loa no kou manao e make ka kaua keiki i loaa i ko kaua mau la hapauea ma na lima o kela kii keleawe lapuwale?”

“Ae, ua mau ia pela, a o ko kaua mau kino no ka uku moepuu o ia mea i na kaua e hoole a hoao paa a ma kekuhi alanui o ao e pakele ai keia keiki.”

“Pehea no hoi i na oe e hookuu ia’u me ka kaua koiki e hele au ma ka aina okoa a hiki i konu nui ana, alaila, hei mai no maua ima o kou alo?”

“Aole no ia he mea e pakele ai nona, oiai i na he keiki nui a uuku paha, a ha makahiapo nae oia, aole loa no oia e pakele ana i na Moleka kona akua, a ua ike no hoi oe, aole e noho kekahi moa maanei nei i na aole e pelu kona mau kuli a hoomaikai aku iaia.”

Me keia pane hope loa a kana kane, ike ea iho la oia, aole loa he alani e ae e pakel ai kana keiki mai ka make ae, koe wale no paha kela wahi mea a laua i ohumuhumu malu ai me kona kokoolua.

Nolaila, ma keia mokuna kakou e ike ai i ka pakele io ana o ka mea nona keia moolelo.
