I came to a section of the Myo Ma Market where all the grocery stores are lined up. Every storefront displayed a wide variety of vegetables. Compared to the abundance of variety, the number of shopper customers is small. The atmosphere is quiet. The workers were also spending their time leisurely.
As I was doing so, I suddenly felt a gaze. Someone was staring at me. I looked around and saw a boy sitting at a table in the grocery store, and our gazes met. On the table on which he was sitting, there were various things placed in a messy manner, and on a tray right next to him was a pile of ginger. The boy was looking at me while touching the ginger on the side. While tending to the store, he seemed to be concerned about the foreign tourist with a camera who had suddenly appeared.
When I held up my camera to meet his expectations, the boy smiled at me, and the woman working on the other side of him also smiled as she glanced at me.
