Sweating bullets while dressed in my black toga, all I wanted was to go home. Unfortunately, my parents had other plans and they weren't taking no for an answer.

"Ugh. Gusto ko nang umuwi," I mumbled to myself as I stood in the corner of the lush garden. The tall, gorgeous trees around me had yellow fairy lights hanging all over its branches.

Younger me would have admired the pretty lights around the garden endlessly, but the adult me can only shiver at their potential electricity bill. Aksaya na sa kuryente, aksaya pa sa pera. I can't wait to tell Cyprus about this!

Wala akong magawa kundi panoorin sina mommy at daddy na makihalubilo sa mga mayayaman nilang kaibigan. Some of them aren't even their friends, and I doubt they know them at all. Networking. I guess that's one word to put it.

I promised my parents that I won't use my phone during the entire luncheon, pero hindi ko na talaga kaya. Pasimple kong kinuha ang cell phone mula sa clutch bag ko at napangiti agad ako nang makita ang mensahe mula kay Cyprus.


Cyprus:

Tapos na ba ang program?

Joe:

Yup! Your girl just graduated college!

Cyprus:

That's my girl

Nga pala makakauwi ka ba ngayon sa apartment?

Joe:

I can't escape my parents sorry huhuhu

They threw a surprise graduation luncheon for me tapos ni isa wala akong kilala hahahaha ginawa na naman akong networking opportunity

Cyprus:

Might as well use that to your advantage

Joe:

How?

Cyprus:

Baka may potential investors or suppliers diyan sa gusto ninyong business nina Argentina. Try to befriend them so you get discounts in the future

Joe:

Baby, you're starting to sound like my parents huhuhu

Cyprus:

I'm just trying to make something good out of the situation

Hindi rin naman siguro yan gagawin ng mga magulang mo kung wala silang mabuting intension para sayo
