Wā whakahaere: 160 meneti
I te rā waenganui o te raumati, i te haerenga tonu o te wera whati pūkete, ka whara i a au tōku pakihiwi matau i te wā o te mahi a te karapu pōro, a, ka whakaaro ahau kia whiwhi nui mai i te whaea o taku hoa, o Mariko. Mai i te ra i tūtaki ai ahau ki a ia, he kuru ngoikore t ahau ki a Mariko, he tono wahine pakeke tōna, kāore i taea e au te whakarite. I whiwhi ahau i te nui o te whakaaro i roto i tōku ngākau, engari i te tāpiritanga a Mariko i ahau, ka whakatūria ahau. A, mehemea i kite a ia i aku hiahia, ka whakatata mai a Mariko ki a au me te menemene māngere.
