the man

From the moment the guy parked his car, I knew he was coming to the store. At first, I thought he would be more of a wanton person because of his face expression he had when he was about to enter the store “Hello, welcome in. If you need any help just let me know”. The man seemed very creative with very fashion clothes. Jeans with all type of designs.  Loved his jeans and asked him where he got them at, and he told me it was all made by him. He was a venerable man, very polite. He looked around the store for several minutes and some items that could be useful for him. Would always check upon him if he needed any help. He wasn’t sure what he was going to buy. After a while, he grabbed some pants with extra buttons, big scissors, super glue, stickers and markets. Walking around one more time, making himself wonder more if he needed any other items. “Are you looking for another item sir?” “Oh no ma'am, I think I have everything now”. I have no idea what he was going to do, but I felt like he was going to do a poster and the pants were going to be his to wear. Could be wrong. People would come in and would stare at his wonderful pants and he just felt haughty. The man confirmed that he was going to do another project, but he was going to create a jacket. “How are you going to do it sir?” He said he would be cutting the pants and creating it into a jacket with several details he would be adding. That was something he started to do after his mother bequeathed him all her projects that were mostly done on skirts and shirts. Her mother would spend her whole day cleaning the house, washing clothes, making food for them too and she would spend some time creating nice clothing. He would just be with her looking how the process goes from the start to the end. Days would pass and she would spend her time wisely to make the process wonderful. He wasn’t really into that like he is now. After his mother passed away, he would feel lonely and didn’t have nothing to do. He got the idea to look over his mother stuff and wanted to finish some of the projects that his mother didn’t got to finish. It took him about a week to finish all the products and he decided to start some new ones. He would now spend most of his days working on something. He enjoyed being creative. It was a honor to know a person that would be that creative. He was about to start doing that more and more for him to do it more into a business. He really enjoyed doing that and his would be proud if she would see him do great at his business of making those amazing clothes.
