ʻO ka mua, e kamaʻilio kākou no ka nui o kaʻokoʻa o ka makahiki a me keʻano o ka makahiki o ke kaikamahine. No ka mea,ʻoiaʻiʻo, hiki iā mākou ke'ōlelo aku i ke aloha o ke aloha i nā makahiki a pau, akā, heʻoiaʻiʻo, he mau mea ponoʻole ia. Eia kekahi laʻana, hiki ke heluʻia kēlā mau moʻolelo i ka wā o kahi kaikamahine he'umikūmāhā mau makahiki, aʻo ke kanaka ua hala ma mua o kanakolu. ʻAʻole paha he moʻolelo e like me nā moʻolelo no Nabokovʻo Lolita. E noʻonoʻo i ka mea like i waena o kēlā kanaka a,ʻoiaʻiʻo, he keiki. Inā makemake nā kānaka i kekahi i kekahi a kūkulu i nā pilina, a laila pono iā lākou ke kuleana nui. A i kēia hihia,ʻaʻole hiki ke nīnau i kekahi mea e pono ai. E noʻonoʻo e pili ana iāʻoe iho, he aha kāu e noʻonoʻo ai i ka pihaʻana o nā makahiki he'umikūmāhā ʻO ka meaʻoi aku paha, no ka pilikia o ke kula a me ka pehea e loaʻa ai i nā māka maikaʻi, nā kaikamāhine a me nā hoaaloha,ʻikeʻole aʻaʻoleʻike nā mākua iāʻoe. I ke kanaka he kanahā mau makahiki, pehea ka manaʻo? Ke manaʻo neiʻo ia e pili ana i kaʻoihana, noho mālie i ka home, e pili ana i ka pia a me ka lawaiʻa me nā hoaaloha. No laila,ʻaʻole hiki ke kapaʻia kekahi pilina ma kekahi hihia i ke aloha a aloha iā lākou. Malia paha he aloha maoli ke kaikamahine, no ka mea, aia nā kānaka e nānā maikaʻi ana i ke kanahā, e kiaʻi iā lākou iho aʻike i keʻano o ka makemake. Eia kekahi, ua makemake nā wāhine i nā'ōpio, no ka mea, uaʻoi aʻe ka naʻauao a me kaʻike. ʻO kēia, pinepine,ʻo kaʻoiaʻiʻo, akā,ʻaʻole ma kēia hihia. No ka makemake o kahi kanaka eʻoliʻoli, e hoʻomanaʻo i ka'ōpio. Malia paha he wahine a me kāna mau keiki. ʻOiai, ua nāwaliwaliʻo ia i ka wahine hoʻokahi, a ua makemake wale paha e'ōlelo i ka "waina".
ʻO kekahi kaikamahine'ōpiopio i kēlā kanaka, he mea nui i ka pili pili i ka wahine. No laila, wikiwiki kokeʻo ia me ia, a nalowale loaʻo ia, aʻo ke kaikamahine e kani no ka manawa lōʻihi aʻike i kona aloha aloha mua, akā,ʻoiai he mau makahiki,ʻaʻole loa ia he keiki. No laila,ʻo kēia mau pili pono e pono e hōʻaloʻia, a ināʻikeʻoe ua hāʻule kekahi kaikuahine, hoaaloha a kaikamahine paha i kēia kūlana, ponoʻoe e hana i nā mea a pau.

Ma hope o ka manawa, ulu aʻe ke kaikamahine, hoʻomaopopo i nā mea a pau a e mahaloʻiʻo nō ia no ka hoʻopakeleʻana iā ia i ka manawa kūpono mai nā launaʻole.
Akā, aia kekahi mau kumu'ē aʻe kahi e likeʻole ai kaʻokoʻa makahiki i kahi kūikawā,ʻo ka maikaʻiʻole. Eia kekahi laʻana, inā heʻumikūmāiwa makahiki o ke kaikamahine, aʻo ke kanaka he iwakāluakūmāiwa wale nō,ʻaʻole hiki ke noʻonoʻo nuiʻia kēiaʻokoʻa. Uaʻike mākou a pau e ulu ana nā kaikamāhine i mua, a ma muli o ke akamai o nā kānaka. No laila, hiki iā mākou ke noʻonoʻo heʻekolu aʻehā mau makahiki ma waena o lākou. Eia kekahi, inā he like like nā manaʻo a me nā pono o kekahi kanaka,ʻaʻohe mea e pili ana i ke kauʻana o ka makahiki. Inā lāua aʻelua e ola i ka ola ola, e like me ka heleʻana, loaʻa ka wā lōʻihi a me nā like, a laila, he mau lā'ōpio lāua aʻo ka poʻe iʻike pono iā lākou keʻike i keʻano o ka makahiki. ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo, i kekahi manawa e loaʻa i kahi kaikamahine kahi mea keiki, akā inā he akamaiʻo ia,ʻaʻohe kūpono e hana i ka loloka no kekahi kumu, he paʻakikī a aneane hikiʻole keʻike. Ma nā hui pālua, kahi iʻoi aku i kaʻumikumamāwalu a emi mai hoʻi ma lalo o kanakolu, nui loa nā kuʻikahi kūikawā. I kēia manawa, he kāne a he kaikamahine keʻano o ka hanauna like, me ka hoʻonaʻauao hoʻokahi, nā manaʻo i ke ola, nā mea e pono ai, nā pilikia a me nā hoʻomanaʻo nui o ke ola, ka'ōpio a pēlā aku.

ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o nā wāhine ma kahi o ke kanakolu o ke kaikamahine, a ua kokoke i ke kanahā. Aia paha he paio ka hoihoi. Eia hou, hiki i kona mau mākua ke kū'ē i kēia mau pilina a me ka maleʻana. Akā, me kēia pilikia, hiki iāʻoe ke noʻonoʻo inā pono ka hana a ke kāne a me ka wahine. ʻAʻole e huhū ke kaikamahine i kona mau mākua, e uē a haʻalele i ka hale. ʻO ke ala maikaʻi loa,ʻo ia keʻike i kāu mea aloha.

ʻO kaʻokoʻa o kaʻelemakule, he kanakaʻelemakule,ʻaʻole pono e lilo i mea pilikia no ka poʻe i aloha i kekahi i kekahi a uaʻae e hoʻololi. ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻaʻole maopopo nā kānaka o kēlā me kēia hanauna i kēlā me kēia, akā inā heʻoiaʻiʻo kēia aloha, hiki iāʻoe ke ho'āʻo mau i ka pilikia, e hoʻoholo i nā hopena pololei a me ka hoʻoholoʻana.
