bags as they entered the market. Mother bought meat from the meat shop.
Shiela saw all kinds of fishes at the fish stall. There were bangus, dalagang
bukid, tilapia and others.
“Mother, let’s buy some watermelon,” Tina said. So they went to the fruit
stand and bought fruits. “Oh! I almost forgot to buy vegetables,” Mother said. The
