Vishvakarma General Store

Vishvakarma General Store is located at number 28 in Jhotwara. It's just a small shop on a regular street, but we’ve been here long enough that everyone knows where to find us. We don't have any big neon signs or anything like that. The shop is filled with all the usual stuff like soap, matches, snacks, and basic groceries. Most mornings start with me pulling up the shutters and setting out the crates of milk. It’s a simple routine. The space is a bit tight, so you have to be careful not to knock things over when you’re moving around. We get a lot of kids coming in for sweets or pens before they head to school. I spend most of the day behind the wooden counter, marking things in my book and talking to whoever comes in. It’s a good way to stay connected to the neighborhood. Sometimes the rain leaks a little near the back door, and we have to move the grain sacks, but we’ve learned to deal with it. We don't have any big plans to expand or anything corporate. We just want to keep the shop running and make sure we have what people need. It’s a practical life, and we don't ask for much more. Jhotwara is a busy place, but our little corner at 28 stays pretty much the same day after day.
