The Diary Game: Ariaria Market Adventures—Surviving The Market Chaos(17-12-2025)

The struggle for survival is what pushes us in going extra mile to earn to do things which normally won't have been done. I remember my first and second pregnancy where I was always home and won't go out for work or hustle in order not to feel any inconvenience but it's the same me today towing every corner of Ariaria market in an attempt to buy goods to restock my shop and also make delivery for my client who made bulk order. It wasn't easy oo having to struggle with other people for a stock. I had left home as early as 8am, taking just tea and bread and didn't get to eat anything till afternoon.

I couldn't find everything in one place so I moved to the next shop on search of other items, I found and made purchase. I packed all my goods together and took it to the bus to load. After loading it, I now felt the hunger that has been biting my stomach and went in search of a restaurant to buy food. I was already looking tired and one could tell by just my appearance that I'm hungry and stressed.

I found a place but they were only into fast food. And the distance from the market to a restaurant was far so I settled for noodles. I ordered for three packs and three eggs and within fifteen minutes, it was ready. I ate the food and ordered for a bottle of Pepsi to complement the meal. I was fully satisfied, I realized for a while before moving slowly to the bus when my co market woman called me and informed me that the bus was about to move.

While walking down to the bus, I got a call from @purpleidy23 to source for a weavon she needed for her next hairstyle but unfortunately, the bus was ready to move and I couldn't delay the movement. I contacted my customer to know if she had it but was told that it's no longer in the market do I got into the bus and we journeyed back to Uyo. I got here tired and couldn't go to the shop so I went home, did some chores and shared my diary before getting my rest for the day.
