Neteyam

Neteyam and his family temporarily returned to the Omaticaya clan. Everyone greeted them with hugs, polite greetings, and signs of respect. Natesy, Neteyam's friend, missed him greatly, but when she approached him, she noticed that he was depressed, though he tried to hide it.

Natsie approached Neteyam with concern, gently touching his shoulder.

— Neteyam, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?

Neteyam tensed at her touch, though he didn't pull away; he sighed softly and made sure no one was watching them.

“Um, nothing, just my dad scolded me,” he replied, trying to sound indifferent, although Natsie was not stupid.

“Neteyam, don’t lie to me,” she replied, looking at him skeptically.

He growled in frustration and finally gave in.

"Ugh, alright!" he replied resignedly, looking into the distance at Lo'ak, who looked very happy. "It's all because of that skawng Lo'ak... There was a really beautiful girl in that clan, her name was Tisrea... but she paid more attention to Lo'ak than to me..."

Hearing these words, Natsie's heart broke, as she had been in love with Neteyam for a long time, but she managed to hide it perfectly

"Oh... I understand, it's hard when the feelings aren't mutual. " Neteyam merely nodded slightly, looking defeated, disappointed, and sad.
