Today I went on my usual Sunday market shopping spree at the LaPenitence Market. My wife, Celia, gave me a bag in which to put the things I would buy, but I ended up purchasing more items than can fit in the one bag.
On my way back, as I rode over a speed bump, one of the pawpaws fell through the plastic bag and unto the roadway. What immediately followed got me really emotional.
A lady standing at the side of the road quickly alerted me of what had happened. As I stopped to turn around, a man on a bicycle picked up the pawpaw and brought it to me. As he was handing it to me, another man brought a black plastic bag and opened it for me to put the pawpaw in.
As I was trying to put the pawpaw and the other things that were in the burst bag, into the plastic bag that was just handed to me, a car stopped and a guy came out with a green shopping bag and handed it to me.
I placed the items from the burst bag into the shopping bag and continued on my way home with a tear in my heart, saying to myself. “We shall make it! Guyana nice!”
