Naʻe puke mo loto-mamahi ʻa Māsela ʻEniteleki, ko ha fefineʻifonua Kotopa, ʻĀsenitina. Naʻá ne mafasia lahi. ʻI he lotolotonga ʻo ʻene ongoʻi naʻe ʻikai ha founga ke sai aí, naʻá ne fanongo ki ha lea he konifelenisí naʻe fekauʻaki mo e lotú. Naʻe haʻu fakahangatonu e fakakaukaú ni ki hono lotó ke lotu fakamātoato fekauʻaki mo hono ngaahi faingataʻaʻiá.

Naʻe kamata ke ne lotu maʻu pē ke maʻu ha fakafiemālie. Naʻe ʻomi ʻe he lotú ha nonga mo ha fakafiemālie kiate ia neongo naʻe ʻikai fakalakalaka ʻene moʻui leleí. Ko hono moʻoní, naʻe fakaʻau ke kovi ange hono tūkungá ʻo aʻu ki he ʻikai ke ne toe lava ʻo ngāue. Ko ʻeni kuó ne toe mafasia ʻi he ʻikai ke ne lava ʻo totongi e ngaahi fakamole fakafaitoʻó.

Koeʻuhí ko ʻene fiemaʻú, naʻe kamata leva ke ne vakaiʻi e founga ʻe lava ke fekuki ai mo ʻene ngaahi palopalema fakamoʻui leleí ʻi ha toe founga kehe. Naʻá ne ongoʻi naʻe ueʻi ia ke tukutaha ʻene tokangá ki hono liliu ha ngaahi tōʻonga maʻu meʻatokoni ʻe niʻihi pea naʻá ne ʻohovale ʻi he lahi ʻo e meʻa naʻe tokoni aí. Naʻe fakaofo ʻene fakaakeaké ʻo kamata ke ne ako lahi ange ki he meʻakai fakatupu moʻui leleí.

Hili ha taimi nounou mei ai, naʻá ne fetaulaki mo ha finemui ko ʻEvelini naʻe ʻi he tūkunga tatau mo Māselá—naʻe puke, loto mamahi, mo fie maʻu vivili ha ngaahi tali. Naʻe sio ʻa Māsela kiate ia ko hono kaungāmeʻa foʻoú. Naʻá ne vahevahe ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi meʻa naʻá ne ako fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi fili ki he meʻatokoní mo e meʻatokoni fakatupu moʻui leleí. Naʻá ne vahevahe foki mo ʻEvelini ʻene fakamoʻoni ki he mālohi ʻo e lotú. Naʻá ne fakaafeʻi ʻa ʻEvelini ke lotu koeʻuhí ke ne ongoʻi foki ʻa e ʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá mo ʻiloʻi ʻokú Ne ʻafioʻi ia.

Hili ha ngaahi ʻaho siʻi mei ai, naʻe fiefia ʻa Māsela ke toe sio kia ʻEvelini. Naʻe ʻosi ʻilonga fakatuʻasino mo fakalaumālie pē ʻoku ʻi ai ha liliu. Naʻe fakahā ange ʻe ʻEvelini naʻe liliu ʻene moʻuí pea lava ke ne ongoʻi e ʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá kiate iá.

Naʻe maʻu fakatouʻosi ʻe Māsela ʻa e manavaʻofá mo e fakamatala naʻá ne fie maʻu ke tokoniʻi ʻaki e niʻihi kehé, mei hono ngaahi faingataʻaʻiá mo e ngaahi polé.
