Aia kekahi mau mea kūʻai aku e hoʻomaka ana e manaʻo ʻino i ka hale kūʻai. He mea hilahila - a he mea hilahila - ke hoʻopilikia i nā mea kūʻai aku me nā noi e lawe mai, no ka laʻana, i kekahi mau kāmaʻa i ka manawa hoʻokahi. A i ʻole lawe ʻana i nā lole he nui i ka lumi pono a kūʻai ʻole i kekahi mea ... Ke noi nei i kahi mea ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ...
ʻO kekahi o kaʻu mau hoa pili, he mea paʻakikī ke kūʻai aku i nā mea waiwai, ʻoiai inā he makemake a me ka manawa kūpono. I koʻu nīnau ʻana iā ia e pili ana i kēia pilikia, ua pane ʻo ia: "Me he mea lā e noʻonoʻo ka mea kūʻai aku i kekahi mea penei: "ʻAe, he palaka ka mea hōʻikeʻike, hoʻolei nui ʻo ia i ke kālā ma luna o nā lole, a me ke kanaka!" "Makemake ʻoe i kēia mau hōʻikeʻike?" — "Aole loa!" i pane koke aku ai, aole nae he manawa e huna ai i kona hilahila.
ʻAʻole ia e pili ana i ka manaʻo o ka mea kūʻai aku. Akā ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo e hoʻāʻo nei mākou e hūnā iā ia i ka mea a mākou e hilahila ai iā mākou iho - a makaʻu i ka ʻike ʻia. Makemake kekahi o mākou e ʻaʻahu maikaʻi, akā ma ke ʻano he kamaliʻi, ua haʻi ʻia ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka lole lole. He mea hilahila ke like me kēia, a i ʻole e like me kēia - pono ʻoe e hūnā i kou makemake, ʻaʻole e ʻae iā ʻoe iho i kēia nāwaliwali.
ʻO ka huakaʻi i ka hale kūʻai e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hoʻopili me kēia pono i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, a laila hoʻomaka ka mea hoʻohewa i loko i ka mea kūʻai aku. "Naʻaupō!" - heluhelu i ka mea kūʻai mai i nā maka o ka «kūʻai manakia», a 'ālohilohi i loko o ka uhane «Aole au e like me!» e koi aku iā ʻoe e haʻalele i ka hale kūʻai, a kūʻai paha i kahi mea hiki ʻole iā ʻoe, e hana i kahi mea āu e makemake ʻole ai, e pāpā iā ʻoe iho i ka mea a kou lima i kau mua ai.
ʻO kēlā me kēia mea, akā mai ʻae wale ʻoe iā ʻoe iho ʻaʻohe kālā i kēia manawa a ʻo ia ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o ke ola. I ka ʻōlelo hōʻino o loko a i waho paha "He ʻaiʻai ʻoe!" hiki iā ʻoe ke pane: "ʻAʻole, ʻaʻole, ʻaʻole loa, eia koʻu lokomaikaʻi!" - a i ʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke: "ʻAe, minamina au i ke kālā, i kēia lā ua lohi au (a)."
He hiʻohiʻona pilikino nā hale kūʻai. Ma waho aʻe o nā ʻano i pāpā ʻia, aia nā manaʻo i pāpā ʻia. Ua hōʻeha nui au - ʻo ia ke ʻano o ka hoʻomāʻewaʻewa "Ua hewa ʻoe, a i ʻole?" Kani i ka noonoo. ʻO ka huhū ka nui o ka poʻe liʻiliʻi a nāwaliwali, no laila ʻaʻole mākou i ʻike i ka huhū i loko o mākou iho, ke uhi nei mākou, e like me ka mea hiki iā mākou, ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo he palupalu a huikau. Akā ʻoi aku ka nui o kā mākou huna ʻana i ko mākou mau nāwaliwali, ʻoi aku ka ikaika o ka haʻalulu. Kūkulu ʻia ka hapalua o nā manipulations ma luna o kēia ...
ʻO ka makaʻu i ka hoʻolaha pinepine e lilo i hōʻailona noʻu: ʻo ia hoʻi ke hoʻāʻo nei au e ʻoki i nā pono "hilahila", nā ʻano, nā manaʻo. A ʻo ke ala i waho o kēia makaʻu ʻo ka ʻae ʻana iaʻu iho ... ʻAʻohe oʻu kālā. Makemake au i nā mea hoʻohenehene lapuwale ʻaʻole i ʻae ʻia e koʻu wahi. Makemake au i nā lole lole. He palupalu mākou a hiki iaʻu - ʻae, me ke keiki, naʻaupō a me ka lapuwale - e huhū. A inā hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻōlelo "ʻae" i kēia ʻāpana hina, a laila maopopo: ʻo ka poʻe e hoʻāʻo nei e hoʻohilahila iā mākou e hakakā ʻaʻole wale me kā mākou "pōkole", akā me lākou iho.
