Taking Advantage

To strengthen bonds, showbiz friends held a party sometime ago. As agreed, everyone was to bring food for potluck. However, more than food, the celebrities wanted to see each other and reminisce on experiences. They’ve been apart many years and the time was right to see each other.

Celebrity One (CO) volunteered to bring lechon. The others were assigned Japanese food, pasta, BBQ, and dessert. The Host (TH) took charge of drinks. The day came and CO was upset, as she claimed that miscommunication about dates with the lechon seller led to the non-arrival of the order. The waiting for the order was also the excuse of CO for coming late. The other guests comforted CO and told her not to mind her situation, as they brought more than enough food.

The guests took time to tell stories and have fun. After eating, much food was still left, as most were health conscious and avoided carbs. CO asked if she could bring home the leftover BBQ and pasta for her kids. The guests gave an affirmative response.

While the guests were continuing to tell stories, CO was busy literally clearing out the table, as she loaded all the food trays to her car. Even the pastries and other desserts were not spared. After loading up the food, CO joined the other guests.

CO noticed the various plants, including cacti, around the home of TH. TH said that her kids were taking care of the cacti. Nicely, TH said that CO can get what she likes and she’ll just tell her kids. Later, CO took the plants she liked. TH was busy interacting with the guests and did not notice that CO cleared up her garden.

As the party was coming to an end, the guests went to the kitchen and saw that they did not have to clean anything anymore. They thought that the helpers of TH already cleaned up for them. CO left first, the rest, except for Guest 2 and 3 (G2 and G3, respectively) followed.

TH then asked her helpers if they had eaten. She was shocked at what she heard. The helpers said that they have not eaten and will just eat the dinner they prepared. TH, G2, and G3 were surprised as they knew much of the potluck food was left uneaten. The helpers said that CO took everything. G2 asked where her Pyrex was and they said CO took it, too. G3 said she was lucky that she only used disposables.

When they stepped out, TH became stressed at seeing the empty patches that used to be occupied by her plants. The plants of her kids were taken along with rare ones and orchids. To lessen the tension, G2 said that she knows of a plant seller and she’ll help replace the ones that were taken.

  13. Okay lang yung mag take home lalo na kung maraming tira, kasi sayang naman.
    Pero yung wala kang kunsiderasyon para sa iba lalo na sa mga katulong, eh bongga!
    Pero yung nakawin mo pa yung pyrex na hindi sayo, matindi.
    Yung sa mga halaman, kasalanan ni host yun kasi sinabi niya kunin lahat ng gusto, eh kinuha lahat ni gaga. Hahahahahaha!
