No ke aha e hana maikaʻi ʻole ʻia ai nā wahine e noho pū me nā keiki ma mua o nā kauā?
E ʻōlelo kekahi, ʻōlelo lākou, huhū ʻo ia i ka momona. Lawe mai ke kāne i kahi uku, akā ʻaʻole ʻo ia e hoʻokau iā ʻoe e hana. Eia kekahi mau hihia - ua koi ka makuakāne o ka ʻohana e hana ka makuahine ʻōpio i kekahi mea ʻē aʻe ma waho o nā keiki i mea e lawe kālā ai i ka ʻohana. Me he kālā ʻole ka makuahine. A me he mea lā ua nalo kāna loaʻa kālā ma kāna makemake kūʻokoʻa. Ua hana pū ʻia nā kamaliʻi, ʻeā? Eia naʻe, e hoʻolapalapa ana ka makuahine ʻōpio, a ʻo ia … Aia nō i waena o kā mākou poʻe heluhelu kekahi poʻe e ʻaelike me kāna kūlana.
“I kēia mau lā, hele mai nā ʻohana o kaʻu kāne e kipa iā mākou no ka ʻaina ahiahi: ʻo kona kaikuahine a me kāna kāne. Noho mākou ma ka papaʻaina a loaʻa kahi manawa ʻoluʻolu: nā meaʻai ʻono, ʻakaʻaka, kamaʻilio maʻamau. Ma keʻano laulā, hoʻomaha hoʻomaha. ʻO ia hoʻi, ua hoʻolilo lākou i ko lākou manawa ma kēia ʻano. I kēlā manawa aia wau i loko o kekahi ʻano o ke ao holoʻokoʻa. Māhele au i ka moa i ʻāpana kūpono, hohola i ka pata ma luna o ka berena, huki i "kēlā mau huawaina ʻino" mai nā muffins, holoi i koʻu waha, hoʻoneʻe i nā noho, ʻohi i nā penikala mai ka papahele, pane i nā nīnau i kā mākou mau keiki ʻelua, hele i ka lua me na keiki (a ia lakou, a i ko'u makemake ana ia lakou), holoi i ka waiu i kahe mai ka papahele. Ua hiki iaʻu ke ʻai i kekahi mea wela? ʻO ka nīnau he haʻiʻōlelo.
Inā he ʻaina pāina koʻu ʻekolu a me nā keiki, e lawe wau i kēia mea nui a pau no ka mea ʻole. Akā aia ʻekolu mau kānaka e noho pū ana me aʻu. ʻO ke olakino piha, maikaʻi, ʻaʻole lolo a makapō ʻole. ʻAʻole, malia paha lawa kā lākou lōlō manawa, ʻaʻole maopopo iaʻu. Akā manaʻo wau ua maikaʻi nā mea āpau me lākou. ʻAʻole i hāpai kekahi o lākou i kahi manamana lima e kōkua iaʻu. Me he mea lā ke noho nei mākou i ka limousine like, akā ua hoʻokaʻawale kahi partage opaque soundproof iaʻu a me nā keiki mai iā lākou.
I ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, me he mea lā iaʻu ma kahi ʻaina awakea ʻē aʻe. I loko o Gehena.
No ke aha he mea maʻamau no nā poʻe āpau ke mālama iā māma e like me ke kauā, nanny a me ka mea mālama hale a pau i ʻōwili i hoʻokahi? Ma hope o nā mea āpau, wili wau e like me ka squirrel i loko o kahi huila he 24 mau hola i ka lā, 7 mau lā o ka pule, a me ka hoʻomaha ʻole o ka ʻaina awakea. A i ka manawa like, ʻaʻohe uku, ʻoiaʻiʻo. A ʻike ʻoe, inā he kahu hānai koʻu, e mālama maikaʻi wau iā ia ma mua o ka mālama ʻana o koʻu ʻohana ponoʻī iaʻu. E hoʻāʻo wau e hāʻawi i kona manawa e hiamoe ai.
ʻAe, ʻo wau ka makua nui. Akā ʻaʻole hoʻokahi wale nō! ʻAʻole ia ka hana kilokilo a me ka hoʻokalakupua e holoi i ka maka o ke keiki. ʻAʻole wau wale nō ka mea hiki ke heluhelu i nā moʻolelo kaʻao me ka leo nui. ʻIke wau hiki i nā keiki ke hauʻoli i ka pāʻani ʻana i nā poloka me kekahi mea ʻē aʻe ma mua oʻu. Akā ʻaʻohe mea hoihoi ia. Pono wau.
He paʻakikī iaʻu e ʻōlelo ʻo wai ka hewa no ka mālama ʻia ʻana i kēia ala. Hana like nā mea āpau i koʻu ʻohana. E kamaʻilio ʻoluʻolu ka makuakāne me kāna hūnōna kāne hoʻomana, me ka nānā ʻole ʻana i ka ʻoiai e holoi ana māua me koʻu makuahine i ka pā, huki ke keiki i kahi pā palaoa mai ka papaʻaina, a ua heleleʻi lāua ma ka papahele. .
Makemake kaʻu kāne ponoʻī i ke kuleana o kahi hoʻokipa maikaʻi, kahi āna e pāʻani ai me ka hauʻoli i mua o nā mākua. Akā ʻaʻole makemake ʻo ia i ka hana a kona makuakāne i ka wā o kā mākou puka like ʻana mai ka hale. A huhū wale nō ia iaʻu. He mea hiki nō ia, ʻo ka pilikia, ʻo wau nō ka pilikia āpau. E hoʻomaha paha wau i ka hana ʻana me kaʻu mau hana, i kiʻekiʻe loa iaʻu?
ʻO kahi laʻana, hiki iaʻu ke kuke i ka ʻaina awakea ʻaʻole no ʻeono mau kānaka, akā no ʻekolu. ʻ, ʻaʻole lawa ka meaʻai a ka poʻe kipa? Aloha 'ino. Makemake ʻoe i kahi pizza?
Pehea, ma ka pākaukau ʻaʻole lawa ka noho no ka māmā? ʻ, he aha e hana ai? E kali ʻo ia i loko o ke kaʻa.
A i ʻole i ka ʻaina ʻohana, hiki iaʻu ke hoʻohālike ua ʻona wau a paʻa wale wau i ka lua. Hiki iaʻu ke ʻōlelo he pono wau e hiamoe, a e hāʻawi i kahi mea ʻē aʻe e mālama i nā hoʻomākaukau no ka hele wāwae.
