Bakas sa mga salita ni Gabbi Garcia, 22, ang pagiging proud niya sa Nguya Squad.
Nguya Squad ang tawag sa barkada nila, kung saan karamihan ng miyembro ay Kapamilya stars, gaya ng A-list couple na sina Kathryn Bernardo at Daniel Padilla.
Members din sina Joshua Garcia, Ria Atayde, Patrick Sugui, at Sofia Andres at ang partner nitong si Daniel Miranda.
Kabarkada rin nila ang boyfriend ni Gabbi, ang kapwa niya Kapuso star na si Khalil Ramos.
Ayon kay Gabbi, pagdating sa kanilang samahan, hindi nila pinag-uusapan ang kinabibilangang network o anumang may kinalaman sa trabaho.
“We usually don’t really talk about work whenever we are all together.
“It’s like a break from work, actually,” kuwento ng aktres.
Nakausap ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) si Gabbi sa Sandwich Session kasama ang editorial group ng Summit Media nitong Huwebes, September 23.
Pagpapatuloy ni Gabbi, iniingatan nilang magkakaibigan ang kanilang samahan.
“And what’s nice about this group is that we make time to see each other.
“Sabi nga namin, e, we often tell each other, ‘Nasa sa atin if we want this relationship to grow even more.’
“So, we constantly see each other, nagkakamustahan.
“It’s more of a friendship than us being actors and actresses, or personalities.
“It’s more really, like, a friendship.”

ON SORTING OUT DIFFERENCES
Naibahagi rin ng Kapuso actress kung paano nila inaayos kapag may gusot o hindi pagkakaunawaan ang sinuman sa kanila.
Saad ni Gabbi, “Our friendship is built on respect. We respect each other and we are all adults in the friendship.
“So, we know our boundaries. We know how to respect each other.
“And it’s actually nice that we are all different people. We get to learn from each other.
“Kung may tampuhan man, we try to settle it right away.
“There was never like an issue when it comes to our individualities naman.
“It’s more fun nga, actually, kasi pag may absent na isa, parang, ‘Ay, kulang kasi wala yung ganito sa grupo.’”
JOSHUA GARCIA AS LATEST ADDITION
Nitong September 5, gumawa ng appreciate post ang ABS-CBN actor na si Joshua Garcia dahil sa pagkakasama niya sa Nguya Squad.
Nagpasalamat si Joshua na mapabilang sa grupo dahil malaking tulong sila sa mga pinagdadaanan niya ngayong may pandemya.
Bahagi ng post ni Joshua: “These beautiful people saved me from drowning in loneliness.”
Sabi ni Gabbi, masaya siyang nakatagpo si Joshua ng mga kaibigan sa kanilang grupo. Pero hindi pa raw sila nagkaka-bonding ng Kapamilya actor.
“Joshua also plays golf with the boys. But ako kasi, personally, hindi ko pa nakakasama si Joshua with the group.
“Because whenever they see each other, I’m at work or I’m in quarantine for work the next day.
“But I’m very happy. I saw his post and he is also in our Viber group chat.
“I’m very, very happy that he found friends that will care for him that are true to him.
“Kami ni Josh, we haven’t hung out talaga this pandemic, but he already showed his support.”
“Kasi when our Front-Seat Foodie was airing, he posted it, parang ganoon,” pagtukoy ni Gabbi sa YouTube channel nila ni Khalil.
Dagdag niya, “Kahit hindi pa kami nagkakasama, there is this connection, which I’m grateful for.
“Looking forward to actually hang out with everybody."
Samantala, dahil sa pandemya ay mas naging limitado ang pagkikita nilang magbabarkada.
“Before kasi, talagang parang every week magyayayaan lang," sabi ni Gabbi.
“This time kasi, we also respect each other’s choices, because of nga the virus, the COVID.
“May mga takot din, may mga nag-aalangan din to go out, and to see each other.
“But we still do keep an open line of communication. Nagkakamustahan kami.
“Siguro the last time we saw them, we had an all-girl dinner. Nag-dinner kami ng Nguya girls, that was siguro mga a month ago.”
