"Kupaloke, the beautiful flower girl {Pronounced as kupa·loke which means Tuberose in Hawaiian}and Kai, fisherman from the Sea and secret lover {Pronounced as kah ee}. Story: And so it goes till this day the fishermen can hear faint strains from Kais ukulele as they get closer to the tiny island in the Pacific accompanied by the smell of freshly baked vanilla cakes, with hints of caramel and cinnamon, sweet and citrus aromas followed by a heavy rich floral scent from the tuberose and orchid leis being woven. At an early age, Kupalokes mother taught her to weave and make beautiful lei garlands. She would take them to the market place to sell. Now let me tell you a story. Kupalokes hand was promised, unknown to her to the Chiefs Son, Ailanee as her father had made an alliance between the two villages before his passing on to the next life. The Chief was getting ready to celebrate this matrimonial alliance. However, Kupaloke was in love with Kai and their love was a bond meant to last forever. The distraught Kupaloke could not bear the thought of marrying anyone else. The Chief found out about the secret love affair that was harboring between the couple and ordered to kill Kai. So late that night Kai and Kupaloke decided to elope in his small fishing boat; but word broke out of their plan and they were being chased by the Chief and his men. Kai prayed to the Sea God who sent big waves to protect them so that they could escape to the next island and live happily ever after. Out of the sky came big bolts of lightning and claps of thunder as Kais prayers were heard and a heavy storm fell upon the seas, with waves crashing the Chiefs boats and men. Kai and Kupaloke managed to escape.
