Tuna longs for a baby

Tuna just turned 18, but there was no male old enough to mate as Ghali and Bobo were both 16 and Maui a master Doctor was just turned 15. Tuna was longing to have a child and she liked Maui, all she could do was dream knowing it would be 2 to 3 seasons before she had a child she longed for, so Tuna went back to farming.

Chapter 8

A day of celebration

Mina the youngest of the three girls who still age 17 reminded Tuna about Isola day and asked what they were going to do as the villagers in this tribe always want to their elders when they needed to know what to do. She said to Tuna 'what are we going to do for Isola day?'
'I don't know what our parents do?' Tuna feeling too big a responsibility at her age. Tuna longed for the old days when her parents were alive and teaching them in the ways of culture. Tuna missed them a lot. She was only 11 when her parents died and at this time, she wished for some one older to talk to. Then she remembered a special day when she was only 5 years old and her parents give each other presents and she remembered a small shiny pebble her parents give her. She had long ago lost it, before that she treasured that pebble for many seasons, but she cannot recall when it was lost. Then Tuna had an idea what they were going to do and she called a meeting of all the working villagers.

The villagers prepared the food and the place to celebrate would be at the idol as she had done a long time ago with her parents. They use to celebrate every season, but after all the adults had passed away many years ago, none of the villagers had thought about it been only children. Their only thoughts at the time were survival. Now there was plenty of food, more than enough to feed 63 villagers, it was time to celebrate Isola day. Tuna was determined to make it the best Isola day that no one would ever forget.

The day arrived and the villagers really enjoyed them selves, they danced feasted drank the juice that Tuna had made from the berries. The villagers the following day all want up to Tuna praising her on the good day she give them and she just said it was every ones contribution not just me.
Kuku said yes but they were your ideas that helped to put it all together.

After Ghali kept on moving to her embracing in the end gave in to him after all he was a Master Farmer and the tribe needed farmers, than doctors knowing that the GC always healed the villagers with his parties that also had magical auras of rainbows that healed all the villagers at one fell swoop. In the end Tuna fell for Ghali and she realised that his children would be good. Later she found she was a mother of triplets. What a lot of baby mouths to feed she thought and she went to care for her baby triplets.
