Njau, Gambia
1 Isatou walks with her chin frozen. Fat raindrops pelt her bare
arms. Her face hides in the shadow of a palm-leaf basket, and her
neck stings with every step.
2 Warm scents of burning wood and bubbling peanut stew drift
past. Her village is close now. She lifts her nose to catch the smell.
3 The basket tips.
4 One fruit tumbles.
5 Then two.
6 Then ten.
7 The basket breaks. Isatou kicks the dirt.
