In the heart of the small town, Emma found fulfillment as a grocery store clerk, weaving connections with regular customers. Among them, Roger, an old man with a weekly routine, stood out. Every week, he entered with a carefully written grocery list, a tribute to his late wife and her favorite, a perfect chicken pot pie.
Emma, observant and compassionate, admired Roger’s dedication. One week, Roger’s absence sparked concern, prompting Emma to visit him with flowers and a warm smile. To her surprise, Roger welcomed her, and their conversation unfolded a poignant truth – Roger didn’t have a wife; the weekly ritual was a tribute to his late love.

The grocery store, once a backdrop for routine, became a stage for a heartwarming discovery – a testament to the enduring power of love shaping routines that linger in the hearts of those who hold it dear.
