She understands why she has come now.
She hears it in the howls on the wind, scents carried from low mountain peaks across the way. He is here. It irks her.
Hokulani has never gotten along with her father. He is stern, tightly bound in the way he reels her behaviour in. He had been the first to tell her not to go; in fact he outright told her she could not. Had he really been so set in his decision that he had come all this way to drag her home?
One part of her doubts it, the other only laughs. She knows that Hakumele would far rather spend his days training her brother in his old, dusty, traditional ways that Puamele had stuck to with such ease. If he is chasing her, it is because her mother begged him to.
She wonders if he is weak from travel, his weak joints and bad hips bothering him like they always did in the winter. The thought excites her.
Stood at the border, she finds that she has been staring off for far too long. How odd she would look if another had seen her! Turning off, she trots in search of a hearty meal. A family reunion is due, and she intends to be prepared.
