Mts Store

Working out here in Mariyappana Palya, near Magar Patta City, is a bit different than the older parts of the city. We are at number 3052, and it’s a decent spot. The Mts Store isn't very large, but we’ve got enough room to sit down behind the glass counter. Most of the people coming in are living nearby or working in those big office buildings. They’re usually looking for something quick or asking how to fix a setting on their devices. The air conditioning works most of the time, which is a blessing in the afternoons. Sometimes it gets a bit quiet during the middle of the day, so we just sit and check the stock or clean the glass. There’s a lot of traffic on the main road, and the sound carries right into the shop. We have a small radio that stays on in the background, mostly playing old songs that nobody really listens to. My brother usually handles the morning shift while I take over after lunch. We try to keep the shelves looking full, even if it’s just the same chargers and covers we’ve had for a month. It’s not a complicated business, just a steady one. We see the same faces every week, mostly folks walking their dogs or heading to the store next door. It’s a nice enough way to spend the day without too much stress.
