Businesswoman Admires Two Young Boys Selling Yema to Her Store
A businesswoman in Bacolod City has touched many hearts online after sharing the story of two young boys who regularly sell yema candies to her.
Recently, Hannah Lita, a Facebook user, shared a photo of the boys enjoying a simple meal at her pansitan. She shared that the two often drop by her place, either selling yema or sometimes even rags, as part of their daily routine to earn a living.
For more than a year of running her eatery, Hannah has seen the boys almost every day. She said they are determined to work despite their young age, often asking only for a glass of water before heading back to sell more.
The lady store owner never begged for free food, even when they were obviously tired or hungry.
Lita admitted that there were times she would give them food, even if the boys would politely refuse at first. She admired their hard work and sense of dignity, saying that despite their situation, they continue to push through each day in an honest way.

“Grabe, tignan nyo ‘tong dalawang batang ‘to, araw-araw, walang mintis naglalako yan sakin ng yema o kaya minsan ay basahan.
Sa mahigit isang taon ko sa pansitan, halos araw-araw ko silang nakakasama, lumalaban din araw-araw, minsan hihingi lang ng isang basong tubig, tapos maglalako na ulit. Pero kahit kelan, hindi humingi ng kahit anong libre sa tindahan. Minsan pinapakain ko din sila kahit todo tanggi pa.
Sa ganyang edad kumakayod sila ng marangal, kahit hindi naman dapat…
Sa lala ng kurapsyon na meron sa bansa natin, sila yung pinaka-apektado at pinaka-kawawa…
Pero sila lang din ang may lakas ng loob na lumaban ng patas at malinis.”
