Ua hōʻike ke kanaka 80 makahiki i ke ʻano maoli o ka pilina me ka ʻīnika

He mea pena kiʻi ʻo Alan Q Zhi Lun a nona ka Naked Skin Tattoo ma Singapore.

I kekahi lā, ua loaʻa iā ia kahi mea kūʻai aku i hoʻololi i kona ola i ka wā i hele aku ai kahi ʻelemakule palupalu i loko o kāna hale kūʻai e makemake ana e kiʻi i kahi peʻa no ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana i kāna hoa kamaliʻi i hala aku nei. Ua makemake ʻo ia e kākau ʻia ma kona mau lima ʻelua: “I ka wā i hala, ʻaʻole e ʻike hou ʻia. Ma hope o kēlā me kēia moana he hāmau me ka ʻike ʻole. Ke haʻalele nei ʻoe i kēia lā, me ka ʻike ʻole i ka wā e hui hou ai kāua…” ma nā huaʻōlelo Kina, e like me kēia: Ua kākau ʻo Zhi Lun e pili ana iā ia ma kāna ʻaoʻao Facebook, a ua lanakila ka naʻau o ka poʻe a pau i heluhelu!

ʻAʻole ʻike iki ʻo Zhi Lun ʻo Chonghao ka inoa o ua ʻelemakule nei, a he ʻoihana kaulana a mahalo ʻia ʻo ia mai Geiland Bahru, he moku ma ka ʻaoʻao hikina o Singapore. Aloha nō naʻe he kamaʻilio maikaʻi me Cunhao a ua lokomaikaʻi ʻo ia i ka hoʻolaha ʻana ma kāna ʻaoʻao, ua like ia me kēia:

“ʻO wau: ʻAe, gong, a.. he aha kāu makemake e hana ai no kāu peʻa?

Pane mai ʻo kupuna kāne… Makemake au e hana i nā palapala Kina ma nā lima ʻelua no ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana i koʻu hoaaloha maikaʻi loa i hala aku nei…

No laila ua nīnau au iā Pāpā, hiki iaʻu ke nānā i kāu mea e makemake ai e kiʻi? No laila, hāʻawi mai ʻo ia iaʻu i kahi pepa me nā kikokikona Kina i kākau ʻia ma luna… a hoʻomaka ʻo ia e heluhelu….

(ʻAʻole e hui hou ʻo Shide...) ke haʻalele, ʻaʻole e hui hou

(Ua hāmau ka hopena o ka honua me ka ʻole o ka ʻike ...) Ma hope o kēlā me kēia moana, ua hāmau me ka ʻole ...

(When can we come back after a parting today...) Ke haʻalele nei ʻoe i kēia lā, ʻaʻole au ʻike i ka wā e hui hou ai kāua...

Ma hope o ka hoʻolohe ʻana, ua kaumaha koʻu naʻau... no laila ua hoʻoholo wau e hana i kēia hana koʻikoʻi! Hāʻawi wau iā ia i ka ʻaila ʻeha a loaʻa iā ia kahi peʻa.. ʻAʻohe oʻu manaʻo i ka maikaʻi o ko lāua pilina.

Ua haʻi mai ʻo ia iaʻu he 45 makahiki lāua i hoaloha ai... kaumaha ʻo ia... ʻo ia ke kumu i makemake ai ʻo ia e hana... ʻaʻole pili i ke kumu kūʻai ... e peʻa wale mai iaʻu ...

No laila, ma hope o ka pau ʻana o nā mea a pau.. nīnau ʻo ia iaʻu ehia kaʻu e uku ai no kēia?

Ua ʻōlelo au he $10...me ka ʻakaʻaka

ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole wau makemake e lawe i kahi keneta mai kēia ... akā hoʻomanaʻo wau inā ʻaʻole au e lawe ma kahi o 10 mau kālā, manaʻo paha ʻo ia e minamina au iā ia a no kekahi kumu ʻē aʻe ... Ua ʻōlelo au ua lawa nā kālā he 10…

Akā, ua hoʻomau ʻo ia e koi mai iaʻu no ke kālā... a haʻalele hauʻoli ... ua kaumaha koʻu puʻuwai no laila ua hoʻoholo wau e hōʻiliʻili i $10 a hāʻawi i ke koena.."

He mea paʻakikī ʻole ka naʻau, ʻeā? E ʻoluʻolu e nānā i ka hana a Alan Q Zhi Lun, akamai maoli ʻo ia!
