Shree Krushna Provision & General Store

We are located in Bhosarigoan, specifically in the Keshav Nagar area. Running a general store means you never really know what someone is going to walk in and ask for. One minute it’s a packet of salt, the next it’s a specific kind of lightbulb or a notebook for school. I try to keep the stock varied, but the back room is quite small, so it gets crowded. My father used to help out here, but now it’s mostly me and one boy from the village. The mornings are usually quiet until the school buses start moving. Then it’s a rush for snacks and pens. I spend a lot of time checking expiry dates and rearranging the jars of candy on the front counter. The floor is made of old stone and it stays relatively cool even when it’s hot outside. Sometimes the neighbors just stop by to complain about the heat or the water supply. We don't have any fancy computers, just a notebook where I write things down. It’s a bit old-fashioned, I suppose. There’s a cat that hangs around the entrance sometimes, looking for a scrap of something. I keep a fan running near the register because the air doesn't move much in this corner. It’s a decent life, being part of the community here in Keshav Nagar. We just keep doing our thing day after day.
