[The well is out of the way, a place people only come to if they need to. Not a bad place to relax near - there's a ready source of water if you need it, and plenty of trees to lie under where the other people who do come aren't likely to notice you. So under the trees is where he is, whittling a fallen branch he found, when he hears someone approach.
He always checks who he is before ducking back out of sight. In the unlikely event his mother comes to fetch water herself, he'll want to get away fast before she can set some other curse on him.
It's not his mother. It's the poor girl she's keeping prisoner.
He squints, then frowns. Why is she carrying a basket instead of a bucket?]
