Tita Helene: "And Fides, I have a proposal for you as well. I'm launching a new advertisement campaign for our engagement ring collections at Gold and Glitters. Would you be interested in modeling the jewelry?"

Fides: "Wow, Tita Helene, I'd love to. Your jewelry is exquisite."

Tita Xerxes: "And don't forget about me! We're releasing a new line of luxury cars soon. I'd like you to be the face of our campaign. How about it?"

Fides: (smiling gratefully) "Thank you, everyone. Your support means everything to me. And I'm so happy my friends can be a part of this too."

Tita Cherry: "We're family, and we're here to support you in every way we can. And take note Fides, sweetheart...There's more to come... Your Tito Brixx is planning to have brochures for new high-end houses and we are looking for models... and you and your friends would be fitting to the theme...."

Tita Pearl: "To new beginnings and endless possibilities!"

All: "To new beginnings!"

The evening continues with joyful conversations and plans for the future. Fides and her friends are elated by the new opportunities, feeling the strong support of family and friends as they look forward to their bright futures.
