Notes

Description
Agni no entiende bien qué es eso de ser pobre. Solo tiene una cosa clara: sus padres, Lalita y él lo son. Y todos los vecinos del barrio, también. Porque cuando los mayores hablan entre ellos, en muchas ocasiones suelen terminar diciendo que son pobres. "No es bueno ser pobre", piensa Agni al recordar las caras tristes de los mayores cuando dicenesa palabra. Al hacerlo nunca sonríen. El sol se pone a la misma hora para todos los habitantes de Bombay. Al regresar a sus casas, algunos podrán abrir los grifos para lavarse y preparar la cena. Pero la mayoría, que carecende agua corriente, tendrán que repartir entre toda la familia el contenido de los cubos que han llenado en las fuentes públicas.
Description
Agni does not understand well what it is to be poor. He only has one thing clear: his parents, Lalita and he are. And all the neighbors of the neighborhood, too. Because when the elderly talk to each other, they often end up saying they are poor. "It's not good to be poor," Agni thinks, remembering the sad faces of the elderly when she says the word. In doing so, they never smile. The sun sets at the same time for all the inhabitants of Bombay. Upon returning to their homes, some may open the faucets to wash and prepare dinner. But most, who lack running water, will have to distribute among the whole family the contents of the cubes they have filled in the public fountains.
