Shiv Shakti Mobile & Gift Point

The shop has been here in Chouth Mata Bajar for a good while now. Most days it gets pretty crowded around here, especially when the festivals are coming up and everyone is looking for something nice to give their family. We keep a mix of mobile things and different gift items on the shelves at Shiv Shakti Mobile & Gift Point. Sometimes someone comes in with a cracked screen that needs fixing and other times it is just a kid looking for a toy or a fancy pen. Kota can get really hot in the summer months, so we usually have the fan going full blast while we talk to the people coming in. It isn't a very big place but we try to keep enough stock so people don't have to go all the way to the bigger markets. Usually, I'm behind the counter checking the new inventory or trying to get a stubborn phone to turn back on. It’s a lot of work keeping everything organized. The gift section takes up a lot of space because there are so many boxes. People like to browse and touch things before they buy. We see the same faces every week, mostly neighbors or people who work nearby in the bazaar. It is just a normal shop doing normal things. Sometimes the electricity goes out and we just sit outside for a bit until it comes back. That is just how life goes here. We don't have fancy displays, just glass cases with stuff inside.
