It was a calm evening when Madam Marrya suddenly realized that the milk was completely gone from the kitchen. She had planned to make a warm dinner for her little ones — TanTan and A Tong — but when she opened the fridge, the milk bottle was empty. Her eyes widened in surprise. “Oh no! No more milk!” she exclaimed softly, knowing how much her babies loved drinking milk before dinner. Without wasting a second, she quickly grabbed her handbag and hurried outside to buy some.
The road was quiet, painted in the golden glow of sunset. Marrya walked fast, her mind only focused on the thought of her hungry little ones waiting back home. At the small shop on the corner, she smiled politely and asked the seller for two fresh bottles of milk. The seller, knowing her as a kind and caring mother, quickly handed them over. Marrya thanked him warmly, paid, and walked back home, clutching the bottles close to her chest as if they were treasures.
Meanwhile, TanTan and A Tong were sitting by the window, waiting for their mom. TanTan kept asking, “Where is Mom? I’m hungry!” A Tong looked sleepy but still held his empty milk cup. When Marrya finally stepped into the house, both of them jumped with joy. “Mommy’s back!” they shouted.
Marrya gently poured the milk into warm cups and placed them on the table. The sweet smell of milk filled the room, creating a cozy atmosphere. TanTan sipped happily, while little A Tong smiled sleepily after his first gulp. Seeing them so satisfied brought a deep sense of peace to Marrya’s heart.
That night, the family enjoyed their dinner together with laughter and warmth. The simple act of buying milk turned into a story of care, love, and the beautiful bond between a devoted mother and her children.
