Part 2

Chapter 9

Tawa had been now Adept parent after giving birth to a set of triplets. With her new triplets she had a lot on her hands and the triplets were very demanding. Hula, Tawa's daughter was age five now, and the tribe had to bury her grandmother who just passed away. Tawa only wished that it should have been someone older to be chief, then Tawa thought, am I been selfish having these thoughts. Tawa decided to have a word with one of the elders how she felt.

Tawa thought who she could talk to it was Dama who was an Elder and was a Master Parent as well as a doctor and scientist. Dama was 49 years old and had many children of her own and knew she would understand her feelings.
Dama was glad to talk to Tawa as Dama thought that since her daughter had been chosen as the chief 1 Isola year ago that she may have lost touch with her friends.
Tawa said to Dama, do you think that I might be too selfish thinking these thoughts about my daughter becoming a chief, I feel that she never gets much time to play and I wonder why that it would be better for a older person to be chosen, I know I'm being selfish, but I can't help feeling for her. When she was a baby it was very hard to make her eat as her eating habits were very picky and I use to think, that she would never grow strong, however she proved me wrong as she is a very strong little girl.'
Dama said, it's natural to feel this way, I was always concerned about my little ones, if they did not eat, but I found that if you let them be they can thrive very well on little. I also know how you feel about someone much older to be chosen for chief. Since I never have been in your shoes having a daughter doing a responsible job. I would have the same feelings as you. So your not selfish, just a mother's concern it's natural your still very young Tawa and if I was you I would support your daughter as much as you can, even though she is the chief she still needs her mom. And congratulations on having triplets not many moms' give birth to triplets,'
Thank you and they are a handful too, I see you got another little one.
Yes I'm 49 now, so it will be my last one. Dama said
I'm 27 just so I got time to have more, Tawa said laughing.
'Come on Tawa do you fancy taking our babies to enjoy the beach, It will take your mind off your recent worries.' Dama said.
Since Dama did not like running and so Tawa walked the same pace as Dama to the beach as she was glad of her company. They both kept chatting to each other as they strolled slowly to the beach.

Chapter 10

Tawa triplets had now age two and they were lovely little girls with dark brown hair and she put a small white daisy in their hair and she named each one the first one she named as Matate, Waya and the youngest Laurence. Her oldest child was now 8 years old and as she promised her mom took time to relax and play. Hula still had the same curiosity as her mother, she liked looking at the bees, and she also liked dancing, she even played in the dirt when it was pouring down rain. This leaving Tawa to wash the laundry and to wash the robe in the pure water and soon got it back to its pristine colours. Hula loved her younger siblings and she took time to play with them and, as all older siblings do, boss them about and also sometimes argue with each other saying that's mine. Hula was also kind and she would share her toys and things. Hula had a brother Jam who was now 6.

The mystery sibling

Hula was now 9 years old and Tawa was now 31 with another baby. What she never told anyone knew why. This is what Hula found out.
.
Hula found that she had a half sister who was almost the same age, her name was Sirah. How she came into being is a mystery yet in the details it was that Tawa was her mother and her father was Ali and it looked like she might be slightly older as her name was just before Hula. Her age was the same as her age 9. Hula realised that there might have been a time lapse as she realised she should have been older than she was, it was like her mom had grown 4 years older while she remained the same age for four years, so her sister was the same age as she instead of four years younger, yet her brother was the right age. Hula asked why she was not 4 years older her true age of 13 this happened to her when she was 4 the day she was chosen as the chief. Tawa told her as best she could that it was always known that you were going to be chosen and that since the old chief had died had to wait for the guiding hand to find the right villager and the guiding hand did not look in for several hours after the old chief had died that is in our terms 4 Isola years, and since you were to be chosen never got any older until then. Tawa only realised later after she was chosen to be the chief, why she needed to by the size she was for the robe to fit, as if she grew up as her true age, the robe would have rejected her and no one would have been chosen. Therefore as soon as the chief dies the robe seems to know who the chosen one is and so if it is a child, would not grow older until he/she tries it on. Then the chosen one the time lapse that held he/she there will let go and continue to age.
Hula said, 'Yes I should know that,' as she had so much knowledge locked away in her head and as her mother explained this, Hula realised that this was the hidden knowledge she already knew, but only brought to the service of her mind as soon as her mom told her.

Tawa suddenly wondered how all this came to her mind as she knew she had no knowledge how things worked on this island it was if the knowledge was already there, but found that it would be too complicated to explain why or how it got there. Tawa after pondering about the mysteries of how and why went to the stream to wash her baby.


Chapter 11

Hula gives the villagers a form of formal address and they all gathered at the amphitheater, she had given many of these since she first become chief from the age of 4 and her mother always remained on the right side on the steps the younger children under the age of 12 sat on the steps near the chief and the older from age 12 stood with the adults on the higher steps. On this occasion she was lecturing the tribe on farming and that they would have to beware of the shortage of the fruit on the trees as it had been a bad season, so there not be much fruit, so they would have to ration the fruit between all the tribe only allowing one portion of fruit a day instead of several. This was to make sure that every one got at least one a fair share of the fruit.

After the lecture, there was a lot of talk on how they would share each portion between them, and some of them who had children decided to give their portion of fruit to the children as they needed it more than then as they were still growing and needed to eat more fruit. Hula had more to do inspecting the food. It was a great responsibility for a little girl to take on at the age of 9, but she carried it well.

The following year the restrictions was lifted, as when Hula called another state of address, and she told the tribe the good news that the restrictions was lifted and they all danced and jumped up and down at the news. Then Hula talked about other smaller issues, such as villagers that made complaints about this and that. At the end of the lecture and all the fruit harvested was now able to take what fruit they needed. However so many had got use to their rations still only taken the usual amount of fruit! This meant that some of the fruit got wasted! So Hula called another meeting telling about the fruit going to waste and that every body should take at least have two portions a day. So the tribe agreed. However there was some that did not want more than one had to take the second portion whether they liked it or not. Some give their second portion to the children, and that is when Tawa had this idea on a new recipe of trying out smoothies. She always made smoothies for her daughter and she decided to give out some of her recipes to the tribe and the females of the tribe were pleased and so the fruit never got wasted.

Chapter 12


Isola Day

The villagers were preparing for the coming celebrations for the next coming event of Isola day. Tawa was now 35 and nursing another baby, but she still helped out. Hula was 13 and it was her first Isola Day event as they only held them every 25 years. Every one was all excited. All the farmers caught as many fish and harvest as much fruit and the master farmers especially hunted and found crabs. The women prepared the feast and made smoothies from the fruit for the children. Hula liked smoothies as Tawa would often give Hula fruit smoothies as she knew that was giving her daughter the nourishment to help her growing daughter. It was a tip that was given from Dama to give her daughter to replace the vitamins she needed with the poor eating habits her daughter had, and she was please that her daughter would drink all the contents she made. Tawa was given the task of making the smoothies, as she was good at making up all flavours and Tawa had a wide variety of smoothy recipes and she always let her daughter taste them for approval, if she didn't like a certain one her daughter would say so and her disapproval would go, 'yuk, what have you put into this,' or if she liked it then she would say, 'Yummy, can I have another one. Tawa made all her daughter's favourite ones and made others as well.

Isola Day soon came round and the tribe celebrated at the amphitheatre. They all liked the smoothies that Tawa made as they went down well Hula approved of the new flavours, as did all the villagers. Isola day came and went and it was back to work, and Tawa then had to go back to nursing her latest baby. Her last child was a girl and she named her Laurence and she was splitting image of Hula. Laurence was the daughter of Gamey. Gamey is now 39 and gamey wanted to name their latest child Laurence, so now she had two children she had named Laurence her youngest triplet and her youngest of her and Gamey's children Laurence. And Tawa had already decided on a name of her baby as soon as it was 2. Gamey were now an Esteemed Elder.


Chapter 13

Hula had just turned 14 so now she thought she was now too old to play any more and she could not find mushroom and collectables now. Some of the old villagers died and she buried them. She had seen many who have died over the years, but this did not stop her from grieving each death. On this occasion she had to bury Hina who was age 77 and a master farmer and also died this day was Ginger age 77 and Mua age 75 all farmers. However Mom's give birth to new babies replacing the places of those that had died, so new life comes after death.

On the same day that Hula had her 14th birthday Tawa's daughter was two and she named her Kanga. Kanga's father was Pinot. Now she was with another child now and who the father is not known until the child's details are shown at the age of two. Tawa had decided to have as many children before she was too old. She told Dama this after Dama saw her with another baby.
'Another baby' explained Dama. Dama was now age 55 and bits of grey was beginning to show in her hair and she thought, time flies one minute your young and next before one realises become middle aged.
I went to have my children before I'm too old explained Tawa.
'But your only 36, Okay I know I was the same and I never regretted it. You're so lucky to have a special child and she carries her chiefly duties well. 'Remember few years ago the fruit shortage and making sure all had the fair share.'
'I know, it's a great responsibility for a child of her age. But now she's 14, I can relax a little, but I still feel for her and maybe having more children, gives me something to take my mind off the worries, as I know there is nothing really to worry about. My daughter even though she is the chief keeps telling me off for been such a worrier.
I see you had another little girl who looks like Hula's twin.'
'Yes and Hula loves her, she also loves her brother and sisters, but thinks Laurence is rather special.'
'All your children all been girls and just one boy Jam.' Dama said
'Maybe that's why I keep on wanting kids so that I have another boy and each time it's always a girl, but what ever I longed for I love my girls. Now my oldest is 14 will two of them are now 14 and Sirah is studying medicine and she is doing better than I did at 14. Sirah after a few studies has become Adept Doctor already. She has the help of Natali, Ofu and Sakou as her monitors. And she has Tuitui who is 33 who is female so she'll get female company. Also some new students have started to study medicine, but they only just started. Pai who was her best friend a female and Lolo a male, so she has workmates her age, I better change my baby, it's was nice chatting to you and they both went their separate ways.

Chapter 14

Hula had just turned 18 and she gave her first children's lecture. The children loved her, and each one gained a skill that would enable them for a future career. This was the first lecture for the children as they had no one to teach them for several Isola years, because at the time Hula even though she was a chief, was too young to educate the children until she came of age. Hula enjoyed teaching the children as part of her duties this was her most favourite. Hula looked forward to the next 24 hours when she could teach them again. That is every 4 Isola years in their terms.

Tawa is a grandma

Hula after she had used a love potion her sister Sirah gave her. She asked Bico to marry her and he said yes as he always liked Hula, but he never had the courage to ask her out. They had a honeymoon, and then she found she was going to a baby. Hula was 19 when the baby was born. Tawa was now a grandma for the first time; she was starting to feel old at the age of 41. Now Tawa was with another baby and she would often walk along the beach with her two daughters with their babies. It was nice to have all her family around her with babies. She loved families as they were the most important thing in her life.

Several moons earlier

Sirah also took the potion at the same time as Hula as to show that it was alright to use and that is how Hula did the same. Sirah found it harder to find a husband, as each one turned her down and she wondered what was wrong with her. Then she realised it was Holoku she liked and she they married. Later she also realised she was with child.

Hula, Sirah and their mother walked along the beach every day at the same time. They enjoyed this part of the day the most as they always looked forward to this.

Tawa's triplets just turned 14 and they each celebrated their birthday by drinking their mom's smoothies and they danced at the amphitheatre. After this small celebration. It was time to find a job. All three had some healing skills from their mother and Waya and Matate want on to study medicine, but Laurence been the youngest triplet wanted to take up farming like her dad as she was a lot more agile than her siblings and fishing was her favourite, but she knew she would sometime study medicine. Laurence loved to be a lot more active and she thought that fishing was a lot more active than studying medicine, as she hated standing in one place all the time. Waya was the cleverer than her sister Matate seeing that she become Adept Doctor after a few studies and her sister who was still struggling with herbs did what, she refused to get help from her sibling saying I can figure it out my self. It started to rain and this was an excuse to go and shelter from the rain as a means of escape. Laurence in the meantime seeing that it was raining and thought it was too bad to fish in this weather decided to study medicine until the weather cleared up. Laurence improved at healing and then she saw that the rain was easing off want to harvest the fruit. Waya also had a bit of farming skill, but like her mother wanted to study medicine. Matate had gained a building skill at her sister's lecture before she was 14 while Laurence and Waya had gained farming skill. Matate would have liked a construction job if there was any, but she had to take up medicine instead. This must be the reason why she found it hard to grasp medicine and found that her triplet siblings was well ahead of her and she was most of the time laying down by the fire wondering what to do. Then she would go back and try again to study medicine. After a while Matate grasp the basics and got to be a trainee doctor and she thought, will at least that's something, and she began to enjoy studying medicine, the more she studied it feeling rather proud of her achievement and this was, without the help of her sister Waya.

In the mean time Laurence soon reach Adept Farmer status and was very pleased with he achievement and maybe one day she might achieve an EE statues.

Tawa had a younger sister who was Febi at the age of 37 and she had a few children and was nursing her 4th child, while Tawa kept having girls she kept having boys and like Tawa she longed for a little girl and Tawa even though she had a son jam wanted another boy her last baby was a little girl who was now age 3 named her Omawa. Omawa disliked the ocean, so she would not be fishing when she grew up. Her like were sitting, that's why you always saw Omawa mostly either sitting on the beach making sandcastles or sitting in the orchard playing in the dirt. Tawa was with her 12 baby and she was hoping it would be a boy, as she already had 10 girls and 1 boy. This would give Jam a baby brother to play with as he was always asking her can I have a brother?
