When Aponitolau woke up early in the early morning he heard many roosters crowing and many people talking. “My daughter Binaklingan, how bad your mother is, for she sent us here to Kadalayapan without telling us,” said Aponitolau. His daughter was very sorry but she played on the pan pipe. When it was morning Langa-an saw the golden house by their house. “Why there is a different house here. I think Aponitolau has arrived and maybe he is in that house,” said Langa-an to Pagbokasan, [139] and Pagbokasan went outdoors. “Are you here Aponitolau? We had sought you for a long time, but did not find you. None of our animals are left alive,” said Pagbokasan. “Why did you search for me? I told Sinogyaman and Sinagayan that I was going to fight. Did they not tell you?” said Aponitolau. “We thought that you encountered our old, dangerous enemies, for you have been away many months. Why do you have a daughter who is a young girl?” “Yes, Binaklingan who is here is my daughter, and her mother Asibowan with whom I lived for a long time did not want to come here to Kadalyapan, for she said I must find a girl suitable for me to marry and then we must make balaua so that she will come to our town.”
When they had been in Kadalayapan five days, they went to take a walk in the evening of the sixth day, and they went to the spring of Lisnayan. As soon as he arrived at the spring he used magic so that all the pretty girls who never go outdoors felt hot and went to the spring to bathe. [140] Not long after Aponibolinayen felt very hot and she went to take a bath at the spring. Aponitolau saw her taking a bath and she looked like the half of a rainbow, and Aponitolau went to her, and Aponibolinayen saw him while she was bathing. “Do not wound me in more than one place so I will not have so much to cure.” “If I was an enemy I would have killed you at once,” said Aponitolau. Soon he cut a betel-nut into two pieces. “It is best for us to chew betel-nut for it is bad for us to talk when we do not know each other’s names.” Aponibolinayen did not wish to chew, but when Aponitolau urged her she chewed and they told their names. “My name is Aponitolau of Kadalayapan who is the son of Pagbokasan and Langa-an.” “My name is Aponibolinayen of Kaodanan who is the sister of Aponibalagen who put me at the place close to the spring of Lisnayan, for he does not wish anyone to see me, but you have found me.” Not long after, while they were talking, Aponibolinayen used magic so that she vanished and she went among the betel-nuts on the branch of the tree. “Where did the girl go? I did not see her when she vanished,” said Aponitolau to himself. Not long after he went home with his head bent for he was very sorrowful. When he arrived at their house, “Why are you bending your head Aponitolau?” said his mother. “What are you bending your head for? you say, and I went to the well of Lisnayan and talked with Aponibolinayen, but after a while she vanished and I could not see her anymore.” “Did you not give her any betel-nut?” asked his mother. “Yes, I did.” “What are you so sorry for if you gave her betel-nut? you will find her bye and bye,” said his mother.
