Baba Agba is the oldest aṣọ-òkè weaver in Ìsẹ́yìn. Ewatomi keeps saying maybe tomorrow.

Ewatomi lives with her grandfather in Ìsẹ́yìn. Baba Agba is eager to teach her to weave aṣọ-òkè. One day, Baba Agba faints in his shop. He lies in bed resting, and the loom stands still. Ewatomi tries to use his loom but the threads tangle. Then she touches the smooth wooden pegs, and the loom begins to hum.
