How It All Goes Down
Bulungu, Late Rainy Season, 1961.
- Mother, followed by her three living daughters, trudge through the mud toward Leopoldville.
- A few of the village women chase after them with oranges and water for their trip.
- Fighting through thick clouds of mosquitoes, they arrive in the village of Kiala, where Mama Boanda's relatives live. She invites them in and feeds them.
- They reach Bulungu on the third day, and Leah is consumed with fever. It's so high, she starts hallucinating.
- Leah's not sure how long they're there for, before Rachel flies away with Eeben Axelroot and her mother leaves with Adah.
- Anatole promises to send Leah home when she recovers, but Leah loves Anatole, and she wants to stay. Africa is now her home.
