The girl slips in and out of the crowd, and hears her brother crying.

When she moves closer, she hears the sound of metal hitting the bucket:

everything is over. Her father has tears in his eyes, and while everyone

celebrates, the girl thinks how lucky she is to have been born a female,

even though she remains silent when she want to speak, and listens to

what a girl should not hear
