Another day, another story. People come here looking for sugar, milk or bread. But they also bring their lives with them.Some bring laughter.Some bring tears.Some bring secrets.My store is not just a store. It's a little stage where life keeps playing every single day.Let's see who walks in first today. It's going to be a good day.

Scene 1: The Teapot

Good morning, Mr. Sam. Do you have a teapot? A big one, not a small one.

Of course, Mrs. Brown. Big or small? Shiny or simple? I have many teapots. But tell me, why a big one if it's only for you? I don't understand.

Huh? Young man, because when I pour tea into a big teapot, I don't feel so alone. You see, I used to make tea every day for my husband. We would sit in the garden talking about silly things, laughing, complaining about the neighbors, or just watching the birds. When he passed away, I thought I could stop drinking tea. But then I realized that I could still talk to him even if he was not there.

Oh, I see. So, you still talk to him every day?

Of course. I'll tell you something. Love doesn't disappear. I sit by my window at 4:00 sharp, pour tea into two cups, and I tell him everything that happened that day. Sometimes I cry. Sometimes I laugh, but at least I don't feel invisible.

That's beautiful. You know, I believe people never really leave. They live in our words, our habits, our memories.

Yes. But sometimes the silence in the house is too heavy. That's why I came here today. My old teapot broke yesterday. It felt like losing him again. That's why I want to buy a new one.

Then we'll fix that today. Look at this one. Big, shiny, strong. Like it was made for someone who knows the weight of love.

You are a poet, Sam. All right, I like it. How much?

Don't worry. For you, I'll give you a special price. $10. But with one condition. Next time you drink tea, save a cup for me. I'll visit and we'll talk about your stories. What do you think?

Deal. And I'll make cookies the way my husband liked them.

Then it's a promise. Thank you, Mrs. Brown. And have a nice day.

You too, Sam. You're always so kind. Have a nice day.

You know, sometimes people don't buy objects. They buy memories, comfort, a way to keep love alive.

Scene 2: The CologneExcuse me. Do you have cologne? Something good, please. Really good.

Good morning. A cologne? Yes, I do. What's going on? Relax, young man. You look like you're about to run a marathon.

What happens is I... I have a date tonight. My first real date. And I don't want to smell like chicken wings, you know.

I get it. Good choice. Cologne is a smart idea. But remember, she will fall in love with your heart, not just your smell.

Wow, this one smells amazing. Fresh, clean, kind of confident. Mr. Sam, what do you think? Do you think she will like it?

Let me tell you this. If she doesn't, maybe she's not the right person. But tell me, where are you taking her?
