Iba-iba rin siyempre &#x27;yung fans, ang laking parte nila ng buhay ko, buhay namin. Naiintindihan ko &#x27;yung iba kung saan sila nanggagaling and naa-appreciate ko lahat ng nandiyan to stay,&quot; she told ABS-CBN News&#x27; MJ Felipe in the digital series &quot;On Cue.&quot; <div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="2950046"></ivs-player> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script></div>&quot;Naiintidihan ko &#x27;yun, lahat ng emotions nila, lahat ng pinagdaanan nila nung month na &#x27;yun, week na &#x27;yun. Naiintindihan ko &#x27;yun but mahirap din sa &#x27;kin, mahirap din sa &#x27;min,&quot; the actress said.&quot;Ako &#x27;yung klase ng tao na ayokong feeling ko hindi ko hawak &#x27;yung buhay ko, ayoko na may nagdi-dictate sa &#x27;kin. It was a challenging year for everybody, especially the last quarter, and for the fans as well,&quot; she added. &quot;Kung ako &#x27;yung fan din siguro na kailangan ko rin tanggapin &#x27;yung decision ng idol, kahit alam kong hirap na hirap ka, kasi you love this person so much,so kailangan susuportahan ko &#x27;yung gusto niya. And binigay nila &#x27;yun sa akin.&quot;Bernardo profusely thanked her fans for supporting her decision to go solo. &quot;Doon ko na-feel na grabe, itong mga tao &#x27;to, more than their support and anything, nakikita ka nila as tao. Ang galing, ibang klase sila. Nag-thank you ako, &#x27;yun &#x27;yung &#x27;di nila pina-feel sa &#x27;kin na I need to explain anything, they respected that. Slowly, things are getting better,&quot; Bernardo assured her fans.&quot;Hindi ko naman sila pinipilit, binibigay ko sa kanila &#x27;yung freedom to decide. But this is me, this is what I want to do. If you&#x27;re gonna stay, thank you. If not, thank you pa rin kasi naging parte ka ng ilang years na &#x27;yun,&quot; she added.&quot;If a woman is happy or contented, hindi mo na kailangan i-explain &#x27;yung sarili mo. It just shows how happy you are and maybe &#x27;yun &#x27;yung nakikita ng tao sa &#x27;yo ngayon. I&#x27;m just really happy and contented. I&#x27;m at peace.&quot; <div>GOING SOLO</div>For Bernardo, last year&#x27;s &quot;A Very Good Girl&quot; with award-winning actress Dolly de Leon was a good &quot;warm up&quot; for her solo career.&quot;May adjustment, yes, but I&#x27;m gonna be okay,&quot; she said. &quot;Every project, mahirap, mahirap siya. I&#x27;m preparing myself for that kasi I&#x27;m on my own kasi after &#x27;A Very Good Girl&#x27; for me, ano ba gagawin niya &#x27;A Very Vengeful Girl,&#x27; &#x27;A Very Fragile Girl,&#x27; hindi ko alam kung ano&#x27;ng gagawin ko,&quot; she added. &quot;Like now, the adjustment, it wasn&#x27;t easy, mahirap siya but I want to challenge myself every time... Ibig sabihin &#x27;yung mga ibibigay nila sa &#x27;kin na mga (projects) it&#x27;s not just &#x27;yung mga nagawa ko na before, iba na naman siya.&quot; While challenging, Bernardo still believes that the change she&#x27;s undergoing is for the better.&quot;I just want to experience all these emotions and kung ano &#x27;yung makikita nila sa mga gagawin ko, bago ako mag-yes sa isang project, sobra ko &#x27;yang pag-iisipan. So once I say yes, ibig sabihin naniniwala ako sa project na &#x27;yun. So kung anuman &#x27;yung mapagde-decidan kong gawin, gagawin ko &#x27;yun all out. Kung anuman &#x27;yung challenge, I&#x27;m ready to take that challenge,&quot; Bernardo said.&quot;May kaunting adjustments talaga but then it&#x27;s the good kind of chance. Ngayon ko lang &#x27;to na-feel na it&#x27;s so empowering as a woman na alam ko na hawak ko na ngayon &#x27;yung buhay ko, &#x27;yung sarili ko, kung saan ko gustong pumunta, ano&#x27;ng gusto kong gawin, ikaw lang,&quot; she added.Right now, Bernardo is happy that she has the freedom to work with anyone and explore the roles that she wants to take on in the future.&quot;Siyempre, ang dami kong kailangan i-consider. Lahat naman kailangan may limitations and you do it responsibly, you have your family, I have my management. But at the end of the day, it&#x27;s just you what you want to do what will make you happy. &#x27;Yan &#x27;yung parati akong &#x27;okay I&#x27;m gonna do this,&#x27; and pag-uwi mo, &#x27;I&#x27;m glad I did it,&#x27;&quot; Bernardo said.
