–"Show me" – Päyva said with a serious and sort of a tired expression
–"Päyva, what are you saying?!" – Tsireya said standing up with a crack on her voice and sad eyes, looking straight to Päyva's eyes
–"You heard him 'Reya, what if we were all wrong this whole time?!" – Päyva said with a bright look with a little bit of hope in her eyes, besides the concerned tune that she was speaking
–"No, Päyva, it's not possible and you know it" – Aonung said right after
–"You guys aren't listening" – Lo'ak said looking between the Metkayína kids with a annoyed look and leaving the scene
–"No, Lo'ak! We're listening!" – Tuk said while Kanurí and Newey nodded right beside her
Everyone stared as the forest boy left, Aonung, Tsireya and Rotxo turned their eyes to Päyva who were still looking at the way where the boy went before she met her gaze with Neteyam's who was already looking at her with nothing but worry in his eyes
–"I will follow him" – Päyva said but getting stopped by Tsireya grabbing her arm
–"Oh, no you won't! 'Yva im worried about it too, but we still have things to do, remember?"
Päyva looked at her with worry in her eyes, giving looks between her, the horizon and everyone around, even though she wasn't a Tsakarem of her own clan anymore, she promised to keep helping Tsireya and Aonung teaching the Omaticaya kids the Metkayína ways.
And that fact was what was making her mind almost explode, that was the chance she needed to see Payakan, a lonely Tulkun, with her own eyes, without only knowing him by stories or songs made to scare the Na'vi children to not go outside the reef without their parents
But she knew she had priorities to do now, so she just rolled her eyes and lowered her gaze in annoyance before looking at Tsireya again and nodding, which made the girl softly smile at her friend and called the other Sully kids to reach their ilus
As soon as everyone was already leaving, Neteyam noticed Päyva's frustrated expressions while adjusting her ilu's saddle before riding
–"Hey..uh, are you ok..?"– he says slowly getting closer and standing beside her, but still keeping a certain distance
–"Yes. Why do you ask?" – she says in the most straight way possible, not making eye contact as she speaks
–"Look, i don't know what is happening but if there's anyway that i could help-"
–"No, you can't" – she cutted him off, raising her voice, but calming herself right after she finally met her gaze with his – "Look, you don't know what is happening, so no need to worry-"
–"Then tell me! If my brother is involved i should at least know!" – he looked at her with an annoyed and worry expression, like he was about to look for his brother outside the reef himself
