Two uses for socks

Fatou is preparing to apply henna to my foot, which is a gloopy, Play-Do-ish texture that's smeared on the skin and left there for several hours.

Fatou: Binta, bring the tape and the kawasi.
Me: I do not know kawasi.
Fatou, pausing to think how to explain: …When you play football, you put on kawasi and shoes.

Socks!
