Note 156 — 14

Not long after Aponītolau went to take Tabyayen from above and Gaygayóma was very glad to see him. When they were talking he said, “Now I am going to take Tabyayen down, for I want him to attend our Sayang.” “Yes, you may take him, but you must bring him back when the Sayang is finished.” So Aponītolau took the boy to attend the balaua in Kadalayapan. As soon as they arrived there he began to play with Kanag and they were the same size and looked alike, because they were half brothers. While they were playing, during the Sayang, Kanag said, “Mother, it is showering,” and Aponītolau heard what the boy said to Aponībolinayen. He said, “It is the tears of Tabyayen's mother, for I think she is thinking of him. I told them not to go over there, but they went anyway. I think Gaygayóma saw them playing and she cried.” Then Aponībolinayen went to take them away from the yard where they were playing. She took them upstairs. It was at the time when they were building the balaua. Not long after that they made Lībon,156 and they invited Gaygayóma and all their relatives from the other towns and they danced for one month. Then the people from the other towns went home. As soon as all the people had gone home Aponītolau went to take back the boy to his mother Gaygayóma.
