Morning Markets has become a social hub for homemakers and the elderly. Loud voices are mixed, but if one listens carefully, you can hear the latest gossip. You don't have to listen most of the time, the facial expressions of the listeners and the talker give anyone an idea of what is being said.

In one of these markets was a middle-aged woman haggling over the price of vegetables with a vendor. Her well-kept appearance garnered the attention of the males in her age group and the envy of the women. One look can tell that she was and still is a flower and had a very fortunate upbringing. Her dark hair was neatly styled into a bun at the base of her neck, to give a view of her fair face. Dressed in a slightly faded cheongsam didn't take away from her mature figure. A beauty no matter the age.
