In this afternoon scene, a girl is taking cold water from a clay pot called Amu in Yoruba, to give to her uncle who is thirsty and just coming in from an outing. We keep water in clay pots to make it cold. Making people comfortable, love, and care are the values depicted in this scene. It is important to me because my uncle takes good care of me.

Water is used here to entertain people.

We are eight in my family. There is one niece. I like watching TV. I like playing games. I dislike partying. I would like to become a doctor when I grow up.
