MOKUNA XXI.

 

Ma kela hoea ana aku o ke kaahi no Nu loa, ua hoihoi pololei ia aku la o Lola a hoopaa maloko o ka halepaahao, elike me na kanaka hana karaima apau.  Ua hoonohoia oia maloko o kekahi keena uuku, i hanaia me ka paa loa.

Ua hoea ae no o Kauka Vana Dona ma ka hale hoolulu kaahi, elike me ke kauoha a kona makuahine iaia, ma ke kelekalapa, a oia pu me Akeneki ka i ukali mai ia Lola, ahiki i ka halepaahao, ilaila i haalele aku ai o Akeneki, i kona hoaloha e noho hookahi, me ka hoomanawanui ana i na hana hoehaeha a hoomaewaewa i kau aku maluna ona.

Aole i lilo kela hoopaaia ana aku o Lola maloko o ka halepaahao, i kumu no ua kaikamahine nei, e maule ai, a e hookaumahaia ai paha, ua hoao oia e hoomanawanui i na haawina hookaumaha me ka manao koa.  ka mea hoi nana i kono aku i ka makaikiu, e haawi mai i kana mahalo ana ia Lola, no ka like ole o kela wahine opio, me ka hapanui o na wahine e ae i halawai me na pilikia o kela ano.

He hookahi nae kumu nui o ke kiola ana aku o Lola i kona mau noonoo kaumaha apau, a pulama mai la i na manaolana.  no kona makemake nui no ia, e ike hou ia Elioka, a o ia kanao ka puana ana ae i keia mau olelo, iaia i noho hookahi aku ai maloko o kona keena.

"Ina nei no ka loaa aku o ka lohe ia Elioka, eia au maloko nei o ka halepaahao aole ana e nele kona hele mai e ike ia'u i ka la apopo; a nana auanei e a'o mai ia'u, i ke mea pono e hana ai ma ko'u hihia, a he mea hoolana mai no hoi i ka mana@ ka noonoo ana ae, oia wale no ko'u hoaloha o keia wahi.  Pehea la, e hele mai ana no paha o Ante Roka e ike ia'u?"

Aole loa he wahi manao iki iloko o Mrs. Wadona e hele mai e ike i ke kaikamahine ana i hoohiki ai, e hookau i na hoopilikia he nui maluna on a, ua lohe no oia aia o Lola maloko o ka halepaahao, eia nae e hoomamao ana oia iaia iho ma na wahi e hiki ole ai iaia ke lihi kokoke aku i ka halepaahao, oiai aia mau iloko on a na manao hoowahawaha no ke kaikamahine. nana i wawahi aku i kona mau manaolana a weluwelu liilii.

Ua poho wale nae kela manaolana iloko o Lola, no ka hoea koke aku o Elioka e ike iaia ma kekahi la ae, no ka mea ke waiho mai la ua kanaka opio nei iloko o kekahi ma'i kupilikii, malalo o ka lapaau ana a kona hoaloha, ke Kauka Vana Dona.

Ma kela hoi ana aku a Kauka Vana Dona, a hoike aku la imua o Elioka no ka hopuia ana o Lola, no ke karaima pepehikanaka, ua hele oia a piha loa me na manao kuaki, me ke ake nui e ike i ke kaikamahine ana i aloha ai, eia nae he hana hiki ole loa ia, oiai oia iloko o ka ma'i pilikia loa.

Aole no nae he mau kumu nui o ka loohia ana o Elioka i ka ma'i, mamuli mai no ia o kona noonoo loa no kela nalowale ana o Lola, a hui pu iho no hoi, me kona hooikaika loa, ma ke pena ana i kekahi mau kii, no ka hoikeikeia aku, ua lilo ia i mea e hoonawaliwaliia mai ai kona ola kino, ahiki i ka ma'i okoa ana.

Ma keia wahi, he mea pono i ka mea kakau moolelo, ke hoakaka iki aku i kekahi mau mea kupainaha i oili ae, iloko o keia mau la, e kakaliia ana o ka hoea mai i ka wa e hooloheia ai ka hihia pepehikanaka o Lola.

Ma kekahi la, ia Mrs. Wadona o ka hele ana aku no ke ke@na o kona loio, a iaia i huli hoi mai ai no kona home, e waiho ana kekahi kelekalapa i hoounaia mai iaia, mai kahi mama@ mai, maloko o kela kelekalapa, e hoakaka ana ia. aia ka hoahanau o kona makuakane iloko o ka ma'i pilikia loa he waiho la ma ka'e o kona moe make, a e kauoha mai ana i ua o Mrs. Wakona e holo aku e 'ike iaia, me ka hoohakalia ole.

O Keoni Hikona ka inoa o keia kanaka ua lohe wale no oia i kela inoa, aole nae i kamaaina iaia.  O keia ke kaikuaana o kona makuakane a o ka mua loa no hoi o na keikikane iloko o kela ohana, aia paha kona mau makahiki mawaena o ke kanahiku ame ke kanawalu.

Iloko o na la opio o Keoni Naika Hikona, ua holo aku oia no ke Komohana, a iloko o na makahiki loihi o kona kaawale ana mai kona aina hanau aku he elua wale no ana manawa i huli hoi mai ai e ike i kona ohana, o ka manawa mua loa. mamua o ka mare ana a Mrs. Wadona i kana kane, he umikumamalima no on a makahiki ia wa, a o ka lua o ka manawa o ka hoi hou ana mai, i ka manawa e waiho ana ka makuakane o ua a Keoni Hikona i ka ma'i, me ka ike ole nae o Mrs. Wadone iaia. 

Ua maopopo i ua o Mrs. Wadona, he wahine ka kela kanaha, ua make he mau makahiki i hala, a he elua a laua mau keiki, he hookahi keikikane me hookahi kaikamahine, aole nae oia i lohe, ina paha ke ola nei kela mau keiki, ua make paha, nolaila ma ke ano nui ke olelo ae, he uuku loa na mea a Mrs. Wadona, i hoomaopopo no keia kaikuaana o kona makuakane.

I kinohi, aole he maopopo iaia kana mea e hana aku ai no kela kelekalapa, aka mahope o ka noonoo ana me ke akahele loa, a no kona manao paha aia kekahi mea nona e pomaikai ai.  ma ka hooko ana mai i ke kauoha e hoea aku oia, nolaila hooholo iho la oia, he oi ae ka pono, e hele oia e hooko elike me ke kauoha ma kela kelekalapa.

Iloko o na la helu wale no mahope mai, ua hoea i'o aku @@ ua o Mrs. Wadona, imua o Keoni Hikona, a i wa i lohe ai kela kanaka, ua hoea aku ka mea ana i makemake ai e ike, kauoha mai la oia, e hele koke aku o Mrs. Wadone imua on a, no ko laua kamailio ana maluna o kekahi mau mea.
