Next morning Tine was able to sleep in a little longer than usual due to extreme exhaustion and tiredness he didn't woke up early. It was Saturday and thankfully kids didn't had school but he need to go work later. Last few days were hectic in the restaurant and Winter is going to start soon he was working extra as he needed to earn extra money to buy jackets for both his sons specially Sia finds no problem using her brothers old jacket, his baby girl never complain about it but both boys out grow of their clothes very fast so most of time Tine face difficulty to keep up with their growing size. He feels disappointed in himself about not able to provide branded new clothes, he always has to settle for discounted items or on thrift store. But he knows one thing that Moon goddess loves him alot and that's why she gave him the best children who support him in every way. Tine couldn't asked for any better than that so he wants to do everything in his power to fulfil his childrens basic needs. The Omega mommy quickly gets up and went to finished his morning routine so that he can try to cook something special with little thing left in his refrigerator for breakfast. But as soon as he was done with his morning routine and prayer he heard the door being knocked. By this time kids were already woken up but they were still in bed under the duvet murmuring, joking and teasing to each other.

Tine wasn't expecting anyone but he can guess who will be at the door. Tine went to open the door as Maya and Anshuman excitedly announced "Surprise !!" Tine decide to play along and fakely ghasp in surprise at the oldies giggling at them. They were cute couple though always ready to help Tine and stand with him. They were holding couple of bags in their hands. Tine let the old couple comes inside his small apartment with a smile. They are very fond of Tine and children since the beginning, they love to spending little time with the kids during weekends. The old couple often brings snacks and send meals with Tine for children. Even during school vacation children accompany Tine at work, try to help around with small stuff around the restaurant while sometimes they opt to stay home alone playing board games or just laze around like any other children. After initial greeting Maya asked "Where are my little rascals? Are they still sleeping dear". All three kids ran out of bed chorusing screaming laughing hearing their granny voice "We are here granny, morning grandpa..we missed you..". All kids love to spend their time with the two oldies. Since they're the only close family to their mother and the oldies have taken care of them since their birth when Tine was working away. Maya showed the couple of bag to kids saying "Look what we bought for our little rascals?". She handed two bag containing winter clothes for all three children to Tine which made the Omega feel emotional suddenly he really felt little burden shifted from his shoulder. Tine politely accept the help and thank both the couples. The oldies really didn't mind spoiling childrens and helping Tine with some money whenever they can. They try to help the Omega mommy with whatever they could whenever they can. Even they don't have any kids but they can understand how much Tine has go sacrifice in life to make kids life comfortable. Anshuman made himself comfortable on the dinning table while Maya raised the other bag in front of children and asked "... Now ..who is hungry for some burger and fries?". All children got excited for the food since last they didn't ate their dinner well so they were double hungry hearing about burgers and fries , they all answered raising their little hands screaming with watering mouth "..me ..me..me. Its smelling heaven granny. I can't wait ..... ".

The kids immediately open the bag to check the stuff inside causing them to get more hungry at the food aroma. The couple also bought different flavoured chips, biscuit and chocolate, burgers, nuggets and fries from Macdonald. Tine was rarely able to afford such fancy food but nonetheless he was greatful to the old couple who support him with charity even though the business sometimes doesn't do well due to growing competition and wheather condition. But his eyes welled up with tears remembering last night how kids supported him and realizing how much his little children always hold back themselves just for his sake. Like any other children they never demand fancy toys, fancy food or branded clothes whatever Tine was able to afford for them they find their happiness in it and feels content. Thyme asked when he notice Tine eyes filling up once again watching them "Mommy are you okay? We can eat this for breakfast?...". Tine nods and blink back his tears saying with small smile "I'm fine sweetheart... I will let you guys eat this but only after when you brush your teeth". The kids happily scream and yelled loudly as they run towards the sink to brush their teeth so that they can eat snacks in breakfast leaving all three adult to laugh watching at their eagerness. Tine politely thank the old couple again for everything and making his children happy once again.
