Shree Maleswar Store

We are located over at Rohat 14th Main in a spot that’s easy to find if you know the neighborhood. This is a general store where we keep the daily essentials. Most of the time it is just us behind the counter waiting for the next person to walk in. We have bags of grains and stacks of tinned goods along the walls. The 14th Main area is quite residential so we see the same families every week. We know who likes which brand of tea and who always asks for extra plastic bags. It isn't a high-end shop, just a local place where the floor might be a bit uneven. We do our own inventory and sometimes we forget to order something, so we have to tell people to come back tomorrow. That’s just how we run things here. There is a small radio we keep on for some background music while we work. The sun hits the front window in the afternoon and makes it quite warm inside. We have some wooden drawers for the loose spices and they smell quite strong when you open them. It is a steady way to spend the day, just selling bread and eggs and listening to the neighborhood gossip. Sometimes the stray cat from the alley comes in for a bit of shade. We just keep the shelves stocked and the door open. It's a simple, quiet life in the shop.
