These older girls had never seen such items before and were curious, with their brown eyes filled with confusion. "Mr. Micah, what is this?" one of them asked.
"Lipstick can enhance your skin tone," Mr. Micah patiently explained. "In other countries, people use it to make themselves look better. This process is called makeup. This is foundation. If you don't know how to use it, I can find a video for you to watch and learn from." Mr. Micah spoke in a mix of English and Yaren language, and Nina could mostly understand him.

The children were thrilled with their gifts. "Mr. Micah, please cto my house for dinner tonight! My mom sold sherbs and bought chicken and eggs." "Teacher, cto my house, we have potatoes!" "Teacher, we have sweet potatoes at home!" "Teacher, we have cookies!" The children eagerly invited him, waving their hands and speaking all at once.

After settling the children, Mr. Micah walked over to them. "Where did you cfrom?" "We escaped from the north," Nina replied.

Mr. Micah's eyes darkened, and he spoke in a low voice, "That area is close to the war zone. You're lucky to have escaped."
The northern Yaren tribe lived near the war zone where the villages were very poor. However, the people here in the central part of the Yaren tribe had received protection. The allied forces did not allow further intervention in the north, so they focused on protecting the people here. Despite this, the allied forces frequently caused trouble, even
