He unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half, placing one
of the halves in front of his wife. He then carefully counted out the French
fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his
wife. He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup
down between them.

As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table and
politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said
that they were just fine - they were used to sharing everything

People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite.
She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns
sipping the drink.

Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another
meal for them.

This time the old woman said “No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.”
