Chapter Summaries & Analyses
After being let in by Anita, Minni is astounded to witness the luxury inside the apartment: marble floors, colorful furniture, huge windows, and many books. Anita tells her to begin her work by cleaning Pinky’s room, and this is when Minni finally meets Pinky. Having watched Rohini clean her bathroom floor many times, Pinky helps Minni by telling her exactly what to do. Minni then turns to the task of making roti for the family’s dinner, but without her mother’s help, she is unable to make the bread perfectly. Anita expresses disappointment in the quality of Minni’s roti, and she worries that if she cannot do better in the future, she will lose her mother’s job.
Exhausted from her job, Minni struggles to fill the family’s water supply the next morning fast enough to make it to school on time. Faiza waits to walk with her, and the girls manage to convince the school’s security guard to let them in despite being late. Faiza also brings extra lunch to school, knowing that Minni did not have time to make her own. Minni is thankful for the support and love of Faiza’s family.
