I lost my parents when I was young, but I never let that stop me from enjoying life.
More than anything, I love sports.
Every day, I ran and worked out using the old beat-up equipment in the orphanage.
You stayed late again.
Meet Mr. Andrews, the caretaker, and a genuinely good man.
He treated me like his own granddaughter and would often vouch for me to the orphanage director.
Your grades have really gone downhill because you're so obsessed with sports.
But Lydia is training for the city marathon.
If you don't win, I won't be giving you any special treatment anymore.
Speaking of the marathon, it was a race.
I was representing our orphanage, which had never won even once.
So the stakes were high.
go lydia you've got this everyone was cheering me on i couldn't let them down so i pushed hard right away victory was practically in my hands when suddenly i spotted a woman she could barely stay on her feet but nobody seemed to notice her are you okay what's wrong are you feeling sick i helped her to a bench and called an ambulance heat stroke good thing you called in time because of what happened our orphanage ended up in last place while i was helping the woman another kid won the marathon Don't worry.
You did the right thing.
You saved someone's life.
The next morning, the director called me into his office.
Great.
He's going to lecture me about my grades and the marathon disaster.
But I was in for a surprise.
Miss Lang is here to see you.
I wanted to thank you.
I don't handle heat well, and I don't know what I would have done without your help.
She turned out to be really lovely, and she even gave me a tablet.
From that day on, Miss Lang often came by the orphanage to see me.
Sometimes she'd take me out for walks and bring me to little diners.
