Evangelista topped off the upload by including a snap of Augustin’s custom celebratory sweet treat.
The photo showed a cake with a picture of Augustin and his friends and had the word “Congratulations” written on top of it. On the side of the cake was “USC,” presumably for the University of Southern California.
