(At the supermarket)

She says to an old lady who seems to eat her brain ever since she has given her the items to bill and she, on the other hand, started to search her wallet for money.
Why are these old people out here, when they have kids at their homes to buy for them?

"I guess she has some issue with her sight. Cause I am able to see the required currency in her wallet, I don't know why she is taking a lot of time." She mumbled herself leaning towards her wallet.

There are lots of customers waiting for their items to get billed behind this lady. Lasya heaved a sigh With frustration and she took the wallet from her hand

"I am sorry Ma'am, let me help you with that" saying so she helped her to retrieve the amount needed to pay for which the old lady smiled at her. 

"There you go the bill slip and the 50 rs balance Ma'am, thanks for visiting our shop. Come again." She said giving the slip and a coupon for the next purchase. The old lady smiled at her and collected the baggage

"Thanks, darling, I just have some problem with my eyes and I forgot to put on the spectacles so only had an issue with giving u the money". The old lady reasoned.

She nodded her head in understanding with a smiling face and waved a bye to her. She always respects customers because they are king. Without them, the employers are a big zero. She meant it's highly impossible to sustain in the competitive business world.
Indeed, the customer is a king! In any business.

After a long day, finishing the shift time taking her backpack and she strides away to outside the entrance to reach home. Ritchie was waiting for her and started trailing her behind. Lasya had a smile reaching the apartment and after all, it's sleeping time. This was a day in her nonstop life journey.
Who will not enjoy this sleeping hour?

Once she reaches home, she quickly took a fast shower and changed to her night suit. She prepared some juice and boiled instant noodles for her dinner. She switched on the small TV and settled herself up on the couch for watching some shows.

She is a big fan of English tv shows, especially 'how I met your mother' and 'the big bang theory'.

"I could never get myself over from." She said to herself excitedly.

After eating, she placed the dishes into the dishwasher and cleaned the mess created some time ago in the kitchen. She also poured milk and some dog food into Ritchie's bowl. He ate it happily and went inside the bedroom to sleep. He sleeps next to her but on the floor.

She adjusts the room curtains and quickly jumps into the bed to have a much-needed sleep. Within no time, she was falling into a deep slumber with hopeful dreams. But, before falling into a deep sleep, she hears her phone ringing in the nightstand where she has placed it for charging.

She groans internally and got up from the bed to look at the caller id to check who is disturbing her at this hour.

"It's my one and only friend Tina calling me," she said frowning looking at the phone.

Tina is her colleague from her first workplace and she is her good friend. She works there as a full-time employee unlike her. She is full of energy person and she does only one job and the rest of the time she is with her boyfriend. She goes to the club and booze.
