CEBU - A photo of a soldier together with two street children eating at a fast food chain in Lapu-lapu City Cebu went viral on social media.

The soldier identified as Airman Mario Teadila who is a member of the 560th Infantry Brigade of the Philippines Air Force.

According to ABS-CBN News page, Teadila just finished sending money to his family in Batangas when he saw the two boys sleeping beside a mall. He woke up the boys and asked them if they had eaten. The boys answered, "No". So he took them to a fast food chain, dined and talked to them.

When Teadila was asked why he did that, he said that it's because of how he grew up. 

Teadila came from a poor family and his parent didn't have stable jobs. 

At the age of 19, he decided to become a soldier to help his family.
