CIA WITH BA : TWO FRIENDS RECONCILE FOLLOWING RIFT OVER 5,000

CIA with BA: Two friends reconcile following rift over P5,000

“It’s difficult to do but let’s all try to tame our tongue.”

This is what Alan Peter Cayetano told as he, together with sister Pia and co-host Boy Abunda, concluded an episode of ‘CIA with BA’ on Sunday, January 21.

In the ‘Case 2 Face’ segment, Annaliza Dinquil complained about her friend Daisy Bon to whom she lent P5,000.00. The former said that she granted the latter’s loan because she was enticed by the payment arrangement with interest. However, Daisy has not been able to meet her payment schedules due to other financial problems.

What made their situation worse were the gossip they shared with other people around their neighborhood.

“Kung ang problema ay pera, ‘wag na magsalita ng iba na hindi tungkol do’n sa utang,” Alan stressed. “Kung ang problema [ay] may nasaktan, ‘yun lang [ang pag-usapan]. ‘Pag dinagdagan mo, dagdag din ‘yung problema.”

Daisy, at the end of the segment, asked for Annaliza’s forgiveness.

“Humihingi ako ng tawag sa’yo, sa mga masasakit na salitang sinabi ko sa’yo. Pasensya na talaga,” she said. “‘Yung utang, babayaran naman kita pero hindi ko masasabi sa ’yo kung kailan at anong araw dahil alam mong walang-wala ako ngayon.”

In response, Annaliza told Daisy: “Willing naman akong intindihin. Lagi naman kitang iniintindi. Dahil lang sa pera tuloy, ‘yung friendship nawawala.”

Reflecting on the situation, Alan said: “The earlier [na] ma-solve ang problema, the better. And then ‘yung nasa Bible, ‘Tame your tongue.’”

For his part, Abunda concluded: “I will build on what Kuya Alan said: ‘tame our tongue.’ Dahil the power of words, iingatan natin.”

“Minsan ‘yung utang napapag-usapan e. Pero pag nagbitaw ka ng mga salita na masasakit, ang hirap bawiin. Ika-nga, ang hirap pulutin ng mga salitang masakit na binitawan mo laban sa isang tao,” he added.

‘CIA with BA’ also pledged to give them assistance that may help them with everyday needs.

The program carries on the legacy of Senator Rene Cayetano, the late father of the sibling senators. The senior Cayetano was a renowned lawyer who gained fame through his radio and TV program 'Compañero y Compañera,' which aired from 1997 to 2001.

‘CIA with BA’ hosted by Alan, Pia, and Boy airs every Sunday, 11:00 p.m. on GMA7.
