Ellis and Jeff lovingly raised their grandson Hugh after he lost his parents. With stable finances, they gave him a good education and supported his needs. Even when their savings ran out in his final semester, they took a loan to help him finish university.
As graduation neared, they realized Hugh had stopped attending and went to find him. They discovered he had left school out of fear and embarrassment and was supporting himself and his pregnant girlfriend, Natalie. He regretted hiding the truth.
They offered Hugh and Natalie a home, easing their burden. With their support, Hugh went back to college part-time on a scholarship, Natalie found work nearby, and Ellis and Jeff started a small bakery to help out. Eventually Hugh graduated, got a good job, and repaid the loan. What began as a disappointment became a story of family, honesty, and second chances.
