Water is everywhere in Mia's day. In the morning, she has a shower. Then she makes coffee with water. At work, she has a bottle of water on her desk. At night, she has a glass of water by her bed.

Mia does not think about water. It is always there. But today, it is not.

Today is Saturday. Mia gets up late. She goes to the shower. She turns it on. There is no water.

She goes to the kitchen. She turns on the water there. There is no water in the kitchen. "No shower," she says. "No coffee, and no tea." This is a bad morning.

Mia goes next door. Mrs Green is there with her cat. "Do you have water?" asks Mia. "No," says Mrs Green. "There is no water in the house." "There is no water in the street."

Mrs Green is not happy. Her cat is not happy. The cat has no water in his bowl. He looks at the bowl. Then he looks at Mrs Green.

Mia goes to the shop. She buys six big bottles of water. They are very heavy. She walks home slowly.

She gives two bottles to Mrs Green. Mrs Green puts water in the cat's bowl. The cat drinks and drinks. Then he sits in the sun. He is happy now.

Mrs Green has a small cooker. She makes tea with the water. Mia and Mrs Green sit in the garden. They drink tea and talk. They talk about London. They talk about Osaka, too.

At five o'clock, a man comes. He works for the water company. "The water is OK now," he says. Mia goes home. She turns on the shower. There is water!

That night, Mia has a long, hot shower. Then she has a glass of water by her bed. She looks at it for a long time. Now she thinks about water.
