Parang ‘yung nagpatunay na wala talang pinipili ang pagkakaibigan, kahit ano ka pa. Sino bang mag-aakala na ako lang? Si Kakai lang?”</p><p>More recently, she became once again the subject of similar intrigue, when she was romantically linked with actor Ahron Villena, whose close friendship with Bautista was strained over the rumors. Bautista eventually admitted she fell in love with Villena, and that it was not reciprocated.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Yhnoj4GiE_c?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="~//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="~//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div><p>In her Instagram post, Bautista continued, “Nakita ko na ang kagandahan na meron ako at wala nang makakaagaw nun sa akin, dahil matagal ko nang natanggap kung sino at ano ako - anu man ang tingin ng iba.</p><p>“Hindi tayo mabubuhay sa maaaring iutos ng mundo sa atin. Mabubuhay tayo sa inuutos at sinisigaw ng mga puso natin. Mahalin mo ang iyong sarili bago mo mahalin ang iba. Narito po sa inyong harapan, Kakai Bautista.”<br/> </p>
