Nya’s family decides that Akeer needs to see a doctor after all. Nya and her mother take Akeer to the clinic, and the doctor treats Akeer. Now, Akeer is her old self again—happy and smiling. The nurse tells Nya’s mother that Akeer got sick from drinking the dirty water in the pond. She advises Nya’s mother to boil the water before drinking it. The problem, Nya knows very well, is that water can only be collected from the pond in small quantities—so small that they evaporate when boiled
