Laxmi Genral Story

Our little spot is in Fatepura. We go by Laxmi Genral Story, even if the sign or the name sounds a bit different to some. It’s a basic shop that’s been part of the street for a while now. We sell the usual things people need for their houses. Think of things like matches, snacks, or maybe some thread. It’s a small space, so things are stacked up high. You might have to ask us where something is because we keep moving things around to make room. The street outside is usually busy with people walking and bikes going past. We sit on the stool near the front and wait for customers. It’s a good way to see what’s happening in Fatepura. Some days are slow and we just sit and talk to the person in the shop next door. Other times, everyone comes at once and it gets a little confusing. We don't have a computer or anything, we just write things down if we need to. It’s an old-fashioned way of doing things, but it works for us. We’ve seen kids grow up coming here for sweets and now they come for their own household stuff. It makes the day go by faster when you know your neighbors. We just keep the doors open and see who comes in. It's a simple life running a shop in this part of town.
