Farewell

Don't worry, she's happy here.

But she said he hurts her.

She was happy that the chief praised her for enduring the pain so well.

Oh...
Yeah, I guess you're right.

The boy is walking around with her new girlfriend Hanja.
He was just visiting his sister at the chief again.
He only sees her every few days now.

You should be happy. It's a honor to see the chief so often.

I know. People already told me I should take advantage of this.

You definitely should!
Where I came from it was also common to offer the girls you own to the chief, even family members if necessary.
And it seems it's common here, too.

Suddenly the boy notices Alina.

She just walks by without noticing him.
He wonders if she doesn't want to see him anymore or if she just didn't notice him.
But he doesn't want to talk to her.

Is something wrong?

The boy wonders if it was a good idea to let her go.
He likes Hanja. She's around his age and the sex with her is great. And she's very understanding and supportive all the time.

But she doesn't look that good. Especially when naked.
Even if Alina is still a little young, her body was almost perfect. Not really sexy yet, but definitely cute.
The boy really would like to spend more time with her again. Since his first night with Hanja, he almost never met Alina. And he never had sex with Alina since then.

Oh, sorry. I was just thinking about something.
Let's eat something, okay?

Sure!

Together they go to the eating tent and sit down to eat something as usual.

After a while Gorak approaches and sits down at the same table.

Oh, today without your sister?
Did you exchange her for this one?

No, some friend gave her to me for free.

Ah, so where is your sister now?
She's still fine, isn't she?

Yeah, she's fine.
But...

So do you still have her or not?

I gave her away.

So is it true? Are you the one who gave the chief a new girl?

Yeah. She seemed to like him. And in exchange I'm even allowed to use the private tents on my own.

Nice. Smart move.
Even if you don't own her anymore, she might help you to keep a good relationship to the chief.
And if he likes her, she will have a good life.

You think so? That would be great.

I'm also getting a good relationship with the chief.
I got to know one of his daughters.
And she likes me pretty much.
Because of her I was already able to see the chief a few times.
I guess he will soon give her to me.
You know how many daughters he has. They aren't worth that much to him.

Yeah...
You're lucky, I guess...

The boy is still a little alienated by this world view.
He didn't talk a lot to other males yet. So he actually doesn't know that much about the society. He spent most of his time with Alina and his sister, so he almost forgot about these ownership rules.

After a while, when they finished eating, they get up together and leave the tent.

I have to go. See you!

Gorak moves away from them.

The boy watches him go away, lost in thought.

Private tent? Now?

She tries to smile.

Don't worry. I'm fine.

Then it will be even more fun, right?

Yeah, I guess.

The boy smiles again as he follows Hanja.

He looks back to Gorak once more.
A girl approaches him and clings to him.
It's definitely Alina.
So she's his girlfriend now?
She's the daughter he was talking about?
Of course...

Gorak moves his hand down to her back.
Then he lifts her up and carries her.
She's much smaller than him.

Hanja tugs his arm.

Let's go!

They keep going and soon reach the private tent.
The boy is happy when he sees her naked hairy body.
She's his now. Only his.
He gets closer to smell her. She just lets him do whatever he wants.
And so they have a nice afternoon together.

In the coming days, the boy doesn't see Gorak and Alina at all.
He wonders if they spend all their time in private tents now.

After some more days he visits his sister and the chief again.
When he casually asks the chief about his daughter, he tells him that he gave her to Gorak. And he also knew that Gorak wanted to leave this tribe for a while already.

The boy is sad. So it's likely that he'll really never see them again.
But Hanja is still on his side and presses her face into his neck.
She doesn't say anything to make him feel better. Being with him is the best she can do now.
