‘LOVE, PAPA’ 💙
LOOK: A deaf father touched the hearts of netizens with his special request to a local bakery in Legazpi City, Albay, to bake him a cake worth P100 for his son who was graduating from college.
“Madam, meron po tag P100 na cake? Bili po ako kahit maliit lang sana. Pang-graduation po. T.Y.,” the father wrote on paper.
Lazy Baker Cupcakerie said it accepted the father's P100 payment as he was its first customer that day.
"Today, his eldest son is graduating, and he couldn't contain his pride and joy," the store wrote in a Facebook post on Sunday.
“Touched by his story and his unwavering love for his son, we gladly offered him a cake to celebrate this significant milestone,” it said.
To return the bakery's kindness, Tatay offered them his services.
“Madam pag may gusto ka po ipa-work or ipalinis dito, ako na lang po, makabawi man lang po ako sa lahat na binibigay mo po sa akin hehehe. God bless your family madam,” he said in a letter.
Known as “Tatay” to the bakery staff, he often visits and asks for cake scraps from the bakery.
“It's moments like these that remind us of the incredible strength of a parent's love and the true meaning of community. Congratulations to the proud father and his graduating son! Your story has inspired us all,” the store wrote.
“If you guys want to help, you can drop by the goods at our bakery. Just let us know when so he'll be there. Thank you all for your generosity and compassion,” Lazy Baker Cupcakerie said in another post. 📷 Lazy Baker Cupcakerie/Facebook
