I'M VERY SORRY, LOVE, BUT THEY REALLY DON'T WANT US TO BE TOGETHER BECAUSE IT'S WHAT THE TRIBE WANTS.
I WOULD RATHER HAVE MY HEAD CUT OFF A THOUSAND TIMES IN A THOUSAND LIVES THAN BETRAY THE TRIBE'S LAWS!
AWIYAO!!! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME!!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD TO WITHOUT YOU!!!
OUR FATHERS AND OUR FOREFATHERS HAVE FOLLOWED THIS LAW DOWN TO THE BONE, WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU CAN EVADE IT?!
On a good morning, the young couple, Lumnay and Awiyao, woke up thinking that they may have a chance to convince their parents to let them keep their marriage, even if it is against the tribe's rules because they cannot bear a child; and that the man must marry a woman who can bear a child.
YOU ARE NOT INVITED TO THE WEDDING! YOUR NAME IS NOT IN THE GUEST SCROLLS!
Unfortunately for them, their parents remain grounded to the tribe's rules which has been passed on from generation to generation, and they have no desire to disobey and become exiled from the tribe due to insubordination.
YEARS OF LOVE, INVALIDATED BY ONE LAW THAT UNBINDS AND DISREGARDS WHAT TRUE LOVE CAN ACHIEVE. WHY IS THE WORLD THIS CRUEL?
The parents decide to forcibly take their child away from his wife, and find a suitable wife who can give him a child and conform to the tribe's rules and laws.
MAYBE NOT NOW, BUT MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE, WE WILL LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER.I LOVE YOU, AWIYAO, ALWAYS HAVE... ALWAYS WILL.
Months later, Lumnay found out that Awiyao was going to be married to another woman, and this deeply saddened her and made her want to crash the gates and see Awiyao, but the guards would not let her in as she was not in the listed guests.
Lumnay then went on to the place where she knows she can calm down, beside the roaring splashes of the waterfalls, as she is embraced by the warm waters to subside the coldness she is feeling inside brought by her broken heart as he saw Awiyao marrying another woman.
As the night grew older, she soon accepted the fact that maybe, they just weren't meant to be, and she then contemplated that maybe, in another life, they will have the odds turn to their side and they can live happily ever after.
