Patricia was a public relations major who was born in the Philippines but raised in the United States. When she was only a few months old, her parents took jobs in Los Angeles, California, and she still lived there in her 30s.
Patricia was always proud of her Filipina heritage and she often made it back to Manila for long vacations and to visit family. It was during a trip to the country’s capital when Patricia and her fiancé Ethan witnessed something that would change them forever.
Both Patricia and Ethan were in public relations and they often treated their trips abroad as an opportunity to try all kinds of different restaurants and report back their findings to their followers on social media.
One evening, the couple were dining at a nice restaurant and waiting for their desserts to arrive when Patricia spotted something that caught her eye from outside the window. Near the restaurant’s patio were three kids walking along completely barefoot in what appeared to be dirty clothes. This sight struck the couple as incredibly sad.
Just as Patricia and Ethan were discussing how they could help the three kids, they noticed a man inside the restaurant in military fatigues who was ordering an alarming amount of food. After he had placed his order with the server, the gentleman practically ran outside after the kids.

Patricia watched the man try to reason with the kids to come inside and help him eat the extra food. Reluctantly, she watched the three kids shyly make their way to the table behind the kind man. But to Patricia’s surprise, once they sat down, the eldest-looking child didn’t even take a bite from the mountains of food on the table.
