She will feel like to eat mangoes. She will find and find out this mango and enjoy it. After that she will be pregnant and enough time she will give birth to a son, my son and his name will be LingNgoa”.
Giông threw that mango. It flew highly and dropped right in DrangMai’s millstone.
That night, DrangMai couldn’t sleep her brain only thought about eating mango. She sat up and turned to her mother.

“I can’t sleep mom”, she said, “I don’t know why but I really really wanna eat mangoes. Tomorrow, Can you go to forest and pick mangoes for me mom”.

“You are mad, aren’t you?”, asked her mother, “It's November now. How can we find a mango in this time. Lie dow and try to sleep. Tomorrow, I will go in forest and find something sour it will help you a little”.
But DrangMai couldn’t sleep she rolled on her bed whole night with thinking about mangoes. Whenever she closed her eyes, mangoes appeared in her mind. Early morning, when roosters started crowed, DrangMai get up and as usual she found the way to her millstone to do her daily work and surprisingly she found a mango was in her millstone.
“Mom, I am so lucky”, yelled happily DrangMai, “I find it …in our millstone. Tonight, a bird must dropped it”.
“It’s strange how mangoes can appear in this time”, her mother wodered while DrangMai went away finding a knife to cut it. Later, mango pieces was on a dish. DrangMai brought the dish back. She also had some salt to eat with those.
“Omg! It’s delicious”, DrangMai yelled, “Do you want some pieces mom?”
“No. You keep eating. It’s only a mango for your appetite.” said her mother.
DrangMai kept eating she also didn’t forget to give praises to the mango.
Meantime, Giông was on the way to BiaVai’ village and this place was also BrâuAtâuSơlang’s village. BiaVai was also a girl talent and beautiful as like DrangMai that was thing Giông heard from others. Giông kept going, whole daytime and nighttime. He didn’t stop to rest. When he arrived it’s too late everyone had turned off lamps and slept. Giông wanted to go in but he scared that people thought he went to annoy them. So, he stayed outside and did what he had done when he came to DrangMai’s village.
He peed on one mangoes and started he muttered:
“God! If I’m the person who talent and powerful as like a son of God, I will throw this mango into the millstone BiaVai use everyday. Whole night she will not able to sleep. She will feel like to eat mangoes. She will find and find out this mango and enjoy it. After that she will be pregnant and enough time she will give birth to a son, my son. His name will be RơNung”.
Giông throw that mango away. It flew highly and as like the mango before it dropped right into BiaVai’s millstone.
It’s too late but BiaVai couldn’t sleep she sat up.
“Mom! It’s so strange”, she said, “I don’t know why but I really really wanna eat mangoes. Tomorrow, Can you go to forest and help me pick mangoes, mom? I really realy want them”.
“You are mad, aren’t you?”, said her mother, “it’s November now. How can we find mangoes this time? Tomorrow, I will go but just find something sour that will help your appetite a little”.
BiaVai pulled blanket over her head trying to sleep but whole that night she couldn’t. whenever she shut her eyes, mangoes appeared in her mind.
Early moring, when roosters crowed, BiaVai woke up and as usual she started her daily work. She found the way to her millstone and surprisingly she found the mango was in her millstone.
“Mom!” she yelled, “I’m so lucky. I thought about magoes whole night and now I find one here, in my millstone. A bird must drop it lastnight”.
Then BiaVai went away to find a knife and cut it. Later, she brought mango pieces back then she eat.
“Wow! It’s delicous. Mom”, she said, “come here and try”
“Keep eating daughter. There is only one mango”, said her mother.
Giông found the way back his fighting after that. He continued to fight to AtauYangBul. He foght whole daytime and nighttime. They didn’t stop to rest. Meantime, GiỡTuKrong, DamPhan, GiỡHreng, MaKlen, MaJong fought against BokKiekLaDiaKlaKong. Their fighting was also violent as like Giông and AtauYangBul’s fighting. No one of them wanted to give up. BiaBơngBơh, BiaSơngLong, BiaSơdrăngMatAnar, the beautiful girls still followed them they helped them cook delicious meal which helped the men very much.
After eating the mangoes, both DrangMai and BiaVai felt strange their bodies seemed not like normal days.
“Mom!”, said DrangMai, “I feel my body so strange it’s from the time I ate the mango. It seems I am pregnant. I have never talk to any boys in village, have never sleep in same bed with any men. I feel uncomfortable mom. I’m sad. Why does the thing come to me?”
“Have you done anything when you follow others to forset to hunt and pick up fruit?”, said her mother, “when you are in home I see you a lady’

“Mom! It’s so strange. From the time I ate the mango, I feel tired and uncomfortable it’s like I’m pregnant. He haven’t talked to any boys, haven’t slept in same bed with any men. How can that thing come to me”, said BiaVai.
“Have you follow bad guys to go forest to hunt and pick up fruit? I have planned to find a husband for you but I saw you didn’t like any guy. How are you able to be pregnant?”, said her mother.
Months passed. DrangMai gave birth to a son and named him LingNgoa. Meanwhile, BiaVai also gave to a son and she named him SơNung. Both DrangMai and BaiVai felt ashamed. They and also others didn’t know why polite beautiful girl like them could give birth to children without husbands.
LingNgoa was just three days old. His skin was still red and his bones was still soft but he could say and what he said like oldsters knowledge. Then, LingNgoa asked his mother.
“Mom! Do you have knife and shield?”, he said, “If you have, give them to me. I have to go and find my father”.
“Omg!”, DrangMai exclaimed, “From the old days to now, no one have ever seen the children like you. A child just three days old, red skin, soft bones, small like rat but dare to bring a knife and shield and go to find your father.” then she turned to her son.
“I am a woman and a woman doesn’t have knife and shield and you don’t have father, son. You are a child I give birth without husband. You will not able to find him. Besides, you was just three days old. You are to weak to go anywhere” added DrangMai.
Then LingNgoa repled his mother.
“I don’t lie, mom. Why could I give birth with father? My father was Giông. My name, LingNgoa’s also the name he gave me. Now I want to go and find him”, said LingNgoa.
