A different life

When I wake up in the morning, I go downstairs and turn on the tap for a drink of clean water, but Abasi doesn't have clean water or a tap.

They have to fetch muddy water from the river to drink, wash and to water the crops. It's a lot harder for them to get water.

He has to worry about his family more, because they can get ill from the bad water and they can't afford medicine. If Abasi's parents are ill then he has to miss school and do their work so his sister will get the water from the river and he has to go in the fields. He has to go to the market to sell the crops, but not many people buy them so they don't get that much money.
