Earn Little

 

I sit in a toys store

Devastated

Lost in thoughts

I wonder whether the sun have set already

I didn't want to move nor stop wondering

I want to freeze time

Wonder what would have made me so sad?

Thought of connecting my playlist to the shop's song list

Music started playing

My mood shifted peacefully

I started arranging the disordered toys section and no one stopped me

I looked outside the glass

Its dark

Time for the girls to be at home already

I stopped the music and plans to leave

Someone stops me and asks "Will you come everyday if I pay you less?"

I replied confused "Why would you hire me?"

He looked in 50's and had an innocent fatherly smile

You worked today and played a playlist of beautiful songs. Isn't it better to earn less than nothing?

I replied with a smile "Thankyou. I will see you tomorrow, Uncle"

PS: Fiction. Snip of my dream

Love lots

Keep Smiling
