Sarada Medical And General Stores

Being right near the bus stand means it is always noisy around here. Sarada Medical And General Stores has been in this spot for quite some time. You can see the buses pulling in and out all day long from our front door. We keep a lot of stuff on the shelves, mostly things people need when they are traveling or just living nearby. It’s not a very big shop, so boxes sometimes pile up in the corners when the new stock arrives. My family helps out behind the counter. Sometimes it gets crowded when a bus drops off a lot of people at once. We just try to keep up with everyone and get them what they need. The light inside is a bit dim because of the old wiring, but we know where everything is kept. From medicines to basic groceries, we try to stock what people ask for most. It’s a bit dusty because of the road being so close, so we spend a lot of time wiping down the glass cases. It’s a simple life here. We open early in the morning before the first bus and stay until the last one leaves usually. There isn't any fancy decor or air conditioning. Just a regular counter and some wooden shelves. People know us by name and we know them too. It's a busy corner but it feels like home to us after all these years.
