Hello, I’m the item that people wear on their feet. It’s a struggle for me, ok? Over time, I do tend to stink because I’m constantly being worn. But I had a good owner, and her name was Fatou.  She really took good care of me. She cleaned me every 2 weeks and was always gentle and kind to my friends (her other shoes) and I. She would put all my friends and I in our special containers. We each had our own, and mine was so colorful and bright. 

When she would put me on, she would be so gentle. And when she’d take me off, she would be gentle and return me to my container. Fatou would spray a nice floral scent and before she goes to bed, she’d turn on the steamer on a low setting so that I was nice and warm for the next wear. And when she would clean me and my friends, she’d soak us in soap water for, I think 30 minutes. After that, we’d each get a gentle scrub and go in the dryer for about 45 minutes. After that, we’d all get put back into our containers and they were cleaned while we were being cleaned.

Well, my life of being a shoe wasn’t all that bad knowing I had an owner (Fatou). Until one day she realized she had me for too long and gave me away. My new  owner then became a girl named Azra. And let’s just say that I’m not living my same old life.
