“It’s not like I was masking everything I was feeling,” she continues. “But it was very personal, and I didn’t want people to see me as a victim or to feel bad for me because it happened.”
And forgiveness? “I don’t know,” she takes a long breath. “Ang lalim kasi ng word na forgiveness. For me, you can forgive people who deserve it. But when I forgive you, it doesn’t mean that I have to keep you in my life. I forgive you for my peace of mind, for clarity, and for everything. But it doesn’t mean na puwede kang bumalik. It depends. I’ll just keep my distance; you keep your distance. We’re okay like that. I mean, kunwari, I got hurt, why would I allow you to come back? It depends. It’s a case-to-case basis.
“First, I’ve never imagined myself being in this situation, and then, overcoming it. Depende. But distance is my way of protecting my peace.” — Kathryn Bernardo
