Dad Follows His 12-Year-Old Daughter and Learns She Visits Old Abandoned House Every Day – Story of the Day

A hardworking dad named Peter White raised his 12-year-old daughter Mary all alone. After noticing that his daughter stopped walking home with her friend like she always did, he decided to follow her one day, which led to a surprising discovery.

Peter was a hardworking businessman who started working from home when his wife Annika passed away years back. He decided to do everything from home to take good care of their only daughter Mary and provide for whatever she needed.

Although Peter would take Mary to school every morning, she would usually walk home with her friend Anna every afternoon. He would then sit on their porch, waiting for her to arrive.

It’d always be Mary who’d get home first, as their house was right at the corner of Anna’s street. The two girls would wave at Peter, and he’d wave back with a smile on his face.

In the past month, Peter noticed that Mary would always return home with her clothes dirtied. He didn’t think much of this, as he thought maybe she played with other kids at school on the field or at the playground.

However, he started to notice that Mary would no longer walk with Anna, and Anna would always pass by first. Mary would usually follow after around twenty to thirty minutes.

He decided to ask Anna’s mom what happened. “Hey Lucy, how are you? I was just wondering… is anything going on between Anna and Mary? I noticed they haven’t been walking together after school anymore,” he asked.

“Hi Peter, the girls are having one of those quarrels again. You know, teenage girl stuff,” Anna’s mom replied. This didn’t sound good to Peter, so the next day, he decided to see where Mary would go after school.

Peter waited inside his car from across the school. He spotted Mary leaving, and her clothes were not soiled the same way it’d be every time she’d come home. He started the car and slowly followed her as she walked.

After a while, she turned towards an old abandoned house and entered. Peter quickly parked the car and ran towards the house to follow inside where he saw Mary approach an old man in ragged clothes.

“Mary! Get away from him!” he shouted. Mary jumped at her dad’s loud voice and dropped the bag of food she had brought for the man from their school cafeteria.

“But dad…” she started to say. Before she knew it, Peter lifted her from the ground and brought her inside the car.
