AC Bonifacio, Bianca De Vera hug it out after honest talk about shared history with Harvey Bautista

It was an awkward moment for AC Bonifacio to meet Bianca De Vera, their newest housemate in "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," given their shared history with AC's current boyfriend, Harvey Bautista. Nevertheless, AC and Bianca got to clear things up after having an honest and private conversation.

In the latest episode on Friday, the housemates welcomed their newest boarder, Bianca, who Harvey had courted in the past. While AC welcomed her and helped tour her around the house, the former later told her housemates about what she had heard about Bianca.

“The only words I know about her is her going around to our friends telling them Harvey is her TOTGA (The One That Got Away)," AC told the other housemates. 

“And the last thing I heard about her is she went up to one of our friends and said, 'AC has a problem with me,'” she added.

Later on, after discussing their next task, AC approached Bianca so they could have a private conversation by the pool.

AC told Bianca that a friend spoke to her right before she entered the house.

"She said that you said when we're at rehearsals one time, you had just randomly brought up, 'AC has a problem with me' because I was in front of you," said AC.

She also opened up to Bianca about the story that the latter was telling people that Harvey was her TOTGA.

After AC said her piece, Bianca thanked her for bringing these things up early on because she did not want them to be fake with each other.

“It’s true that I said that (you have a problem with me) but I said I felt like you have a problem with me pero hindi ako galit at all,” Bianca explained.

“I just felt like it. Aminin naman natin 'pag nagkikita tayo sa labas, hindi tayo masyadong nagpapansinan... Alam naman natin pareho na may sense of awkwardness, I mean it's a normal thing. We had history and ikaw 'yung bago ngayon, so it's normal."

She also told AC that it's true that Harvey was her TOTGA, and she was glad when he and AC got together.

"When you and Harvey got together, 'yung totoo ha, I was very, very happy for him and it's true that he was my TOTGA. It's just that alam mo naman na, at that time kasi when nanliligaw siya sa 'kin, I was not in a good place. So, hindi ko sinabi ‘yun because gusto ko siya kunin sa 'yo ulit, of course not at all," she said.

Bianca added that she's happy that Harvey found AC, a woman who can match the love that he gives out to the world.

"So, when I said that, it wasn’t to hurt you at all, it was to say na he’s a great guy," said Bianca. “Talking to you now made me realize na he’s just as lucky to have you as you are to have him. 'Yun lang gusto ko lang i-clear up 'yun."

The talk was pivotal for the two, as it allowed them to hear each other's sides.

“We’re gonna become family. I'm not gonna live with people that I don’t choose to actually love and I've never gotten the chance to fully love you and I want to be able to love you with things being cleared out between us. That's all,” AC said.

AC and Bianca then exchanged I love you's and hugged it out before going inside the house to join the others.

After clearing things out with Bianca, however, AC could not help but turn emotional in the confession room as she told Kuya about how hard it is to be honest as she promised to be when she entered the famous yellow house.

“Ang hirap po kasi na sobrang ino-overthink ko talaga, ino-overthink ko rin po ‘yung pagiging honest. Feeling ko po lagi po akong may problema na kailangang i-clear out," she said.

"They might even take me ranting in a different way, they might take me trying to be honest in a different way. I feel like every single thing I do may mali po lagi sa mga ginagawa ko."

Kuya, on the other hand, advised her not to let the noise stop her from being herself. 

"There are people who we trust, who you love, ‘yun ang isapuso mo, because I believe ‘yung mga opinyon nila are the ones that truly matter," said Kuya.

AC immediately went to the girls' room after her talk with Kuya, with her pair, Ashley, following her. As AC shared her sentiments, Ashley hugged her close and comforted her.

"It's okay at least you were vocal about it and people you needed to talk to para matapos na agad," Ashley said. "Stop overthinking first and just relax and calm down."
