A Cuban girl living in Spain was surprised when she opened what she thought was an Arabic perfume and discovered that inside was an iPhone. The moment was captured in a video posted on TikTok by the account @alegnis2, identified as «Alegnis cubanita», a Cuban emigrant in Spain.
The 50-second clip shows how the little girl opens several gifts one after another until she reaches the box that no one had told her contained something special.
Upon seeing the phone, the girl burst into tears of joy, while the adults present laughed and celebrated her reaction.
In the audio, a girl can be heard exclaiming "Daddy, daddy" through tears, while someone else's voice, emotional, confesses, "I'm even crying."
The video description confirms that the iPhone was a wish the girl had specifically asked for: "The wish she made and it came true."
The author of the clip uses the hashtags #cubanosporeuropa and #miprincesahermosa, related to the Cuban community living in Europe and the familial nature of the video.
Hiding a gift inside the box of another product is a technique used in surprise videos shared on social media to capture the reaction of the recipient.
The video adds to other content recently shared by emigrated Cubans that showcase emotional moments of gifts, surprises, and family reunions.
In recent days, several clips of this type have spread, such as the one about a Cuban mother who surprised her daughter at school, as well as a surprise sent to a mother in Cuba and a family that arrived unexpectedly at a party that no one was anticipating.
These videos showcase moments of affection, gift-giving, and family reunions featuring Cubans, both on the island and abroad.
"My beautiful princess, we love you," wrote the author of the video alongside the clip, summarizing the emotion of the moment in just a few words.
