Orphan Boy Learns His Teacher in the Orphanage Is His Father — Story of the Day
An orphan nearly loses his life on a railway track but is saved by his teacher from the orphanage, who turns out to be his father; the man had been watching over him the whole time.
It took a near-death experience for Steve to meet his father. No, it’s not an exaggeration; it’s what really happened.
The 15-year-old had lived in an orphanage all his life. It was all he knew, and the children there were the only family he knew.

Steve was an average boy who enjoyed life as an orphan, mostly because of the efforts one of the teachers put into his job.
The man, Kyle Shaw, was in charge of teaching the older children since many could not afford to be sent to good schools. Steve loved Kyle’s class because he seemed to be genuinely at home with teaching the kids.
The teachers were mostly volunteers, which meant they were not obligated to put their all into the job, and many didn’t, but Kyle was not one of them.
In addition to that, he seemed to favor Steve above any other student. Nobody knew why and Kyle never spoke about it, believing that nobody could tell he was paying more attention to the boy.

Kyle had a wife, Lisa, and when he met her, she already had a daughter named Lilibet. His wife and her daughter hated Kyle.
The woman had only married him because she needed a stable partner who could keep a roof over her head, but nothing he did was enough. They spent all his money and would often humiliate him.
One day, Kyle organized a field trip for the older kids in the orphanage. The excursion was to the neighboring town, so they went by electric train. The railway was different from the one the kids were used to, and they were in awe of it.
Steve, who loved trains, was entranced too, but in just a split second, he accidentally fell on the rails and a train was coming! Kyle, who always had his eye on him, noticed this and yelled “NO, SON!!!” before jumping on the rails to save him. He barely had time to throw Steve away from the rails and jump to the side before the train...
