In the beginning of the story, the two sisters were were going to Fiji they didn't have a airplane or a boat, so they swam to Fiji. When they got there people were greeting them they were saying mens shouldn’t have tattoos but women's should. Once they were done with that they swam back to Samoa they were singing a song while they were swimming back, when they were swimming back they saw a pearl before they could go up closer a big wave crashed at them after that mess was done the two sisters went up to the pearl.
