            No keia ae maikai ana mao o Makaleka e hooko aku ia hana, alaila haawi aku la o Mr. Lanakasa i ka papainoa o ka poe ilihune ana e kokua mau ana mai kinohi mai, he poe ana i haawi mau aku ai i na uku hoomau i na mahina apau , a i ka wahine i heluhelu iho ai i ka papainoa o ka poe a ke kane e kokua mau ana, lamalama ae la kona mau maka i ka hauoli no keia hana maikai loa a kana kane i hana ai.

            "Ina pela, e lawe pu ana au ia Helena me a'u ma keia misiona," nolaila i kela ame keia la no ka aneane ekolu pule, e ike mauia mai ana ko laua kaalio e holo ana ma o a maanei, a e ku ana hoi mamua o na hale o ka poe ilihune ma na wahi e noho nui ia ana e na poe o'ia ano.

            Mahope o ko laua haalele ana iho i kahi hope loa o ka poe i hoakanaia maloko o ka papainoa a laua e paa ana ia manawa, kahi hoi i loaa aku ai o kekahi kaikamahine muumuu ia laua, he kaikamahine i halawai me na ulia poino o ka manawa a i malamaia hoi e Mr. Lanakasa i kona manawa i loaa aku ai ia Lanakasa, auku aku la i kekahi huina dala nui no ke oki ana a ke kauka i ka wawae o ia kaikamahine i poino, he hana hoi i pakele ai ke ola o ia kaikamahine mai ka make mai mamuli o ke koko ino, a oiai o Helena e noho ana maluna o ka noho o ke kaa, ua hiki ole iaia ke @uini kona waimaka, mamuli o ka moolelo walohia ana o ka lohe ana mai ke kaikamahine poino mai, me he mea la he kaikaina ponoi ia kaikamahine nona, a ua naha maoli kona puuwai no ka nui o knoa aloha nona.

            E hele ana lakou i ka hale keaka e haawiia ana he ahamele ia po, nolaila ua kahiko mau oia iaia iho me kona aahu keokeo, ka makana a ka makuakane o ka haawi ana aku iaia ma ko laua la i mareia ai, me kona lei momi no hoi ma kona a-i, me kekahi omau daimana mamua o kona umauma, a e paa ana ma kona lima hema he mau komo daimana, a ma kona lima akau he komo o na pohaku momi like ole, a ke nana aku iaia he anapa wale no ma kona kino ma na wahi a pau ana e huli ae ai, a o ka lua iho la no hoi ia o kona kau ana maluna on a i na pohaku momi kumukua nui, o ka mua ma kona la i mae ai, a o ka luna iho la keia.

            He heleaha o ka mahina aku i hala ua nalowale mai iaia aku, a ua hoike mai kona mau ano ia manawa me he mea la aole ana mea kaumaha i koe o ka hauoli wale no.

            I ke komo ana mai o ka makuakane, hele pololei aku la oia a hui me ia, a kau aku la i kekahi lima on a maluna o ka lima o ka makuakane, a i aku la me ka leo oluolu loa:

            "E kuu makuakane, e ae mai ana anei oe e lawe aku i ke aloha oiaio o kau kaikamahine nei, He makana keia i houlolohi loaia ka haawi ana aku ia oe a hiki iho lai nei manawa. aka hookahi no kumu a oia no keia, ua laua kila oe, aole o ia wale, aka, ua hoomaopopo au a hooiaio pu iho hoi o ke aloha o ia ke kanawai o kou naau. Ua hakilo au ia oe no na la i hala ae nei, a ua hoike mai ka hana au i hana ai i kou ano oiaio maoli e hiki hou ole iho ai ia'u ke kanalua aku nou no kou mau ano iaio."

            Hopu mai la ka makuakane a hoopili aku la iaia i kona umauma no kekahi manawa, me he mea la e haawi iho ana i kana hoomaikai no na olelo a ke kaikamahine o ka hoakaka ana aku, a i ka hala ana o kekahi manawa hookuu mai la me ka pane ana iho.

            "Ua loihi no hoi na la i hala akahi no a loaa ka pane o kena ano, e kuu keiki, a elike me kau i makemake ai pela no e hanaia aku ana; ke lawe mai nei au i kou aloha oiai nae, aole no au e kala i hookipa mai ai iloko o'u o kuu hoahiuhiu mau no hoi ia'u" alaila honi iho la makuakane ma na lae a hookuu mai la.

            "Pela no, ua loihi io no ko'u manawa o ke kali ana, a eia no ke kumu. ua koho hewa au ia oe," i pane ae ai o Helena, me ka lele ana ae e honi i ka papalina o ka makuakane. "Ua hoahewa nui au ia oe, a ua noonoo nui no hoi au no kekahi hoopai e pono e kauia aku maluna ou, no keia kumu, no kau mau hana kuhihewa a hemahema no o ka hana ana iloko o kou mau la o ke ola ana mamua aku nei, o no ia hana hewa nae a'u ke noi aku nei au ia oe e huikala mai, no ka mea ua hewa au."

            Ua pono kau hoahewa ana mai ia'u, a ua pono no e kauia mai kekahi hoopa'i maluna o'u, o na hoopai apau i manaoia e kau mai maluna o'u aohe a'u ku-e ana aku, ua pono au e hoopaiia, aka nae, e kuu lei, e ninau aku ana au ia oe heaha ke kumu o kou loli koke ana ae nei a hoike mai la oe i keia manao ou ia'u?

            No na kumu lehulehu no, wahi a ka Helena pane, a ke hiolo pu iho la kona mau waimaka ma kona papalina ia manawa," o kekahi o ia mau kumu o ia ka'u mea i ike maka i keia la, oia hoi hoi ko'u hele ana aku nei me mama e ike ia ane kapena, kela kaikamahine wawae muumuu ma ka la aku la i nehinei ua hele aku maua e ike ia Wahie Kalani ame ka ohana wala, a e hoike aku au ia oe i keia manawa ua piha loa au i ka hauoli a oi aku mamua o ka mea a'u i manao mua ole ai pela oe i hana aku ai i kela poe. O ka maikai au i hana aku ai i kela mau ohana ilihune a iloko o ka pilikia ua oi loa aku ke ko'iko'i mamua o ka'u mea i koho wale aku ai nou ma ke ano alunu a maikai ole."

            A, akahi no a maopopo ia'u," me ka huli ana ae o Lanakasa a nana i ka noho mai o ka wahine;" ke ike nei au nau keia mau hana, e kuu aloha."

            "Kahaha." I pane mai ai ka wahine me ka helelei mai la o na waimaka ma kona mau lihilihi;" ua kokua wale no au no ka hooiaio ana i ka mea i wananaia, oia hoi, "E hoolei i kau berena maluna o ka wai a hala na la he nui e hoi hou mai no ia ia oe."

            "Ua loihi io no na la a ua lehulehu pu; aka aole i emi iho ko'u mahalo no ka loaa ana mai o ke aloha o nei kai kamahine a kaua ia'u ke aloha hoi a'u i iini nui mau ai e haawiia mai ia'u a i keia la akahi no a haawiia mai la," oiai no oia e nana iho ana i ka helehelena o Helena an ao, ka hapai ana ae i ka auwae o ke kaikamahine iluna, a honi iho la no kekahi mau manawa lehulehu ma ko Helena mau lehelehe.

            O ke ahiahi mahope iho he ahiahi hauoli loa ia no Mr. Lanakasa, a ua loaa no hoi ka manao ia Helena ua ukuia oia a oi aku no ka mea ana i hana ai i ka makuakane, in a aole ma kekahi ano e ae, ma o ka ike ana i ke ao hakumakuma i poipu ai maluna o lakou iloko o na la i hala aku, ua hookaawaleia aku.

            Mahope o ka hala ana o na pule elima o ka noho ana maloko o Nu Ioka me ka hauoli, ua hoi hou aku la lakou i Kolarado, a malaila i kuai ai o Mr. Lanakasa i kekahi hale nani aole no i manao loa mai ko Robaka ma hale aku, a malaila no hoi laua o ka noho ana me ka hoohauoli ia laua iho i ke koena o ko laua mau la o ke ola ana.

            Ua noiia aku laua e hoi mai a noho pu e na keiki, eia nae, ua pane aku o Mr. Lanakasa aohe hale i lawa ke akea no elua ohana e noho pu ai; a o kekahi no hoi ua makemake oia e kaawale no kona hale me kana wahine mahope o ko laua kaawale ana no na makahiki lehlehu i kaahope aku.

            Mahope koke iho o ko Helena huli hoi ana mai ka Hikina mai. halawai iho l a oia me Makoli ma ke ano ulia i kekahi la, he alo a he alo, maluna o ke alanui, a ia Helena i ike aku ai ia Makoli ua hiki koke no iaia ke ike aku he helehelena kaumaha ko Makoli, aole hoi kela helehelena hoihoi a laiwale on a mamua aku.

            Ia ike ana aku ana, hele koke aku la oia e hui me ia a haawi aku la i kona aloha me ka oluolu loa, me he mea la aohe manao awahua iloko on a, elike me ka Makoli i hana mai ai iaia, a pela hoi me ka kona makuahine, a iaia i hopu aku ai i ka lima o Makoli kulou koke iho la o Makoli ilalo me ka hauhau uwe ana iho.

            "E Makoli ka hoaloha, heaha keia pilikia nui ou?" I ninau aku ai o Helena; he helehelena ma'i maoli kou me ke kaumaha i ka'u nana aku, aole hoi kela ano hoihoi ou mamua.

            "E Helena, elike me ia au i hoike mai la oia maoli no ko'u ano i nei manawa," i pane mai ai o Makoli. "O ka'u e makemake nei i nei manawa o ia ko'u make koke iho.

            "Kahaha! Mai kamailio oe me kela, e Makoli; hele mai kaua iloko o ka paka, he makemake au e hoike mai oe i na kumu o kou kaumaha ana, a mai huna aku no hoi oe i kekahi mea nana i hokaumaha i kou noonoo."

            Hookomo aku la o Helena i kona lima i kekahi lima o Makoli a u haele kuiee aku la ahiki i ka hoea an iloko o ka paka ma kekahi wahi mamao loa mai ka ike ana aku a kekahi poe a maluna o kekahi noho laau i u noho iho ai.

            Ia laua i u hoea aku ai ma ia wahi aia mau ka manaoio iloko o Helena aole o Makoli i ma'i maoli aka, ma kona koho iho aia kekahi mea iloko o kona noonoo nana i hooluuluu i kna noonoo, oiai nae, o ke kaikamahine no keia i hoohuli mai ai i konna kua iaia, a i hana mai ai hoi i kekahi hewa e hiki ole ai ke manaoia aku oia i na ino a pau a makoli ame kona makuahine i hana mai ai iaia ame kona makuahine, a ua nana aku hoi iaia ma ke ano menemene.
