”Na-in love talaga ko kay Alden, vocal naman ako. Kahit sino naman ’yung magtanong sakin, sasagutin ko naman nang diretso. Na-in love ako sa kanya pero hindi siya nanligaw,” Maine admitted, adding that Alden was aware of her feelings because she told him directly.
“Tinanong ko siya noon, kasi ang straightforward ko naman na tao. Tinanong ko siya, ‘Sabihin mo na sakin, ano bang nararamdaman mo for me?’ Direkta kong tinanong sa kanya, gusto ko lang malaman. Sabi ko, ’Kung ano man ‘yan, tatanggapin ko naman. Kailangan ko lang malaman.’ Tapos ayun, ang sabi lang niya, ‘Di ko pwedeng sabihin sa ’yo kasi mawawala ’yung magic,’” she recalled.
Despite the unrequited romance, Maine emphasized that her off-cam relationship with Alden was meaningful and that they had a proper closure after all that happened between them. “Grabe ’yung relationship din namin ni Alden off cam. Pero may closure naman kaming dalawa. Napag-usapan namin lahat,” she said, noting that both of them eventually found peace and closure.
