An emotional surprise caught the attention of many online after a video shared exclusively by The Philippine Star showed an employee, fondly called Kuya Dave, receiving his very first birthday cake at the age of 45.

In what started as a prank, Kuya Dave was called into the HR office under the impression that he had violated a company rule—specifically, going out to buy food without permission.

Confused and nervous, he had no idea that something heartwarming was about to happen.

Moments later, the mood shifted. The HR team surprised him with a birthday cake, balloons, and warm cheers from his colleagues. His stunned reaction and heartfelt response quickly melted hearts.

“Buong buhay ko, kahit saan ako nagtrabaho, talagang dito lang po ako nakatikim ng cake. Totoo lang, hindi ko talaga alam. Talagang surprise talaga 'yun 'yung binigay nila sa akin,” Kuya Dave shared tearfully, visibly overwhelmed by the gesture.

It was his very first birthday cake, and he received it on his 45th birthday—something he never experienced in all his years of working.

“Sabi ko galing sa HR. Meron nagmamahal sa akin,” he added, showing how deeply touched he was by the simple but meaningful act.

The video quickly went viral, with netizens praising the company for showing genuine appreciation for their employees.

Kuya Dave’s story serves as a beautiful reminder of how small acts of kindness can leave a lasting impact on someone’s life.

News, photos, or videos that arouse the interest of netizens would often go viral on social media, due to the attention netizens give them. These viral posts appeal to the emotions of netizens, and in rare cases, this could also happen to ordinary people, making them very relatable.

In a previous report by KAMI, a family of three was mercilessly shot and killed inside their store in Barangay Mallorca, San Leonardo, Nueva Ecija. Caught by CCTV, three men entered their store, closed the roll-up door, and shot the entire family to death. Before fleeing, one of the suspects even grabbed a bag and a mobile phone from the victim. In a report by Gary De Leon of TV 5's 'Frontline Pilipinas,' the family started getting threats after lending P1-M to one of the residents of their barangay; allegedly using the money for business.

In another viral local report, a 51-year-old public school teacher in Las Piñas City was stabbed multiple times by her own husband. According to the report of EJ Gomez in 'Unang Balita,' the 38-year-old suspect committed the crime inside the school's faculty room. Police authorities said the school has a security guard, but, being a familiar face in the school, the suspect managed to easily get in and out of the school. The suspect said he was there to talk to his wife and settle their misunderstanding, but unfortunately, it led to a big arguement.
