The leader of the group was called Sheila.
She and her 2 lackeys around the village, following a group of men ahead of her.
They had been doing their job gathering when these boys opted to help them out. So who were they to refuse?
They shyly nodded, staying a reasonable distance behind the boys. And soon, they reached their little hut. 3 of them stayed here alone.
They couldn't have men staying because they were unmarried, which would be a taboo.
Nonetheless, they still had another hut a little further ahead, occupied by former slave men who came in with them.
At this time, only a handful of people saw the boys helping them. Everyone was too busy doing private chores, cooking at the back of their homes, removing the scales from fish and so on.
Hmm...
Tis' one of the few desolate periods of the day. This was why they liked doing such chores now. For one, they also don't want their other suitors to see other boys helping them.
