God sent

It's been eighteen years now and Michael had totally become the talk of the whole city of New York with the exception of those who hate good things, of course.His popularity increased over the months as a result of them.Unending reports given by the press of his Superman action in high school during preparation for his final exams.It all happened during an afternoon lecture.He was feeling very tired and he laid his head on the desk while the lecture was going on.The lecturer saw this and decided to go to his desk and wake him up or tell him to leave the class.It was almost the end of the school session and the lecturer did not want any of the students to miss his tutorials towards the upcoming final exams.

Suddenly, a truck passing through the school lost control and came rushing towards the lecture room.At the sight of this, everyone ran for their dear lives.The noise drew the attention of the lecturer who was walking right along the wall the truck was about to hit.He tried to escape but it was too late to do anything and the only chance he had was to say his last prayers which was a matter of seconds. He cried out for help and fortunately for him, the noise woke Micheal up and he unexplainably rescued him, to the astonishment of everyone who was now watching the whole thing happening. He got himself and the lecturer out before the lecture room came crashing down!

All the people there couldn't believe their eyes and what Michael did left them dumbfounded. When the press arrived at the scene, they demanded an explanation but all he could say was that he had done what mattered and that he was not quite sure how he did it or if he would ever make it alive if he tried anything like such again.

When he got home that day, his parents who were already aware of what happened from the news demanded an explanation."What do you mean you do not know how you did it?" Mark asked during supper on the day of the strange occurrence."Dad, what is there to hide about how I did something when I do not even know how I did it myself," he replied.Michael told them further the same thing he had been telling anyone who asked for an explanation and that, he himself wished he knew how he did it.All this happened the year before, he was seventeen and getting ready to leave high school.

Anytime he remembered, he would think himself a freak, though his friends at school thought otherwise.After he had finished his final exams that year, he was at home preparing to gain admission into a college after Christmas and New Year. They celebrated the New Year with their neighbour, Rachael, and her daughter, Laura, who had a special liking for Michael and usually said she would have married him but for the great age difference. Now that he is eighteen and about going to college, the urge to know his root began to grow exponentially.He had been told he was adopted since he was young and was also told his biological parents' name and some other few things but he was never told where he was born nor did he ever ask.
