Gabi's Sick Days/The Meeting

Ch 17

I was in the car. I looked out the window and saw another family of four. Hey wait a minute, I think that's that family we met! So I waved at who I think was Micah. She waved back! Then I fell asleep since the car ride from the hospital took a while. And before I knew it, we were home.

I went inside. It felt so weird being on crutches, and it hurt, too. I hobbled back to my room.

"Ugh," I said, "Everything hurts." Then I fell asleep.

**Later**

I woke up to my brother shaking me awake.

"Gabi get up we are going to make a video!" He said.

"Okay," I said back, "What will it be?"

"It's another gummy versus real food challenge!"

"Ooh I like making those videos they are so much fun!" I said excitedly.

So we started to make the video.

The video:

Papa Bee: Hey guys and welcome back to another gummy versus real food challenge! We know you guys like these and a lot of you in the comments were asking for another one so here it is! Alrighty let's get started!

Gabi: Please tell me that this video won't have gross things.

Robi: Yeah remember all of the other videos? The-the-the pork heart, and the cow tongue, and the...um... oh yeah the octopus! That was disgusting!

Gabi: Okay so when I saw that cow tongue I thought I was going to throw up.

Robi: Really?

Gabi: Yeah.

Papa Bee: Alrighty! First round!

Gabi's POV

This was the I think the 6th round out of 10. Robby and I made eye contact. "Rock. Paper. Scissor. Shoot!" We both said at the same time, me giving a rock and him giving scissors.

"Ooh, Gabi won! Which one will you pick?" Papa said.

Hmm. My hands went to my plate, then to Robi's, then to mine, then to Robi's. Finally I picked mine. Shoot. No no no no no!!! This was one of the gross ones that papa said we'd have! "Oh no," I said, "I think..." Then I looked at Robi's plate, and sure enough, it was a gross one. Oh my gosh! "Okay I don't even want to open mine. Nope! Not gonna do it!"

"Gabi you have to it's in the rules of the challenge," Robi said.

"Ugh fine," I said, opening the plate very reluctantly. Once I opened it, I screamed and jumped and nearly fell out of my chair. And there it was, the spider, sitting on the plate. I thought it was going to crawl on me for a minute before I realized that it was food now. "Do I have to eat this?" I asked, looking at papa.

He chuckled, "No."

"Weeeelllllll I think I might want to." What why did I just say that oh no great now I have to do it!

"Are you sure?" Papa asked.

"Yep!" Nope! Seriously, why am I doing this to myself??? Then papa got me a small fork.

I mentally slapped myself as I started to put the fork through the body of the spider. I thought I was going to vomit. Thankfully I didn't though. Then I put the spider into my mouth and I ate it. I chewed it, swallowed it, everything. Only I don't think it's going to stay down...

"Mr Bee!!!!! Get Gabi a bowl or something I think she is going throw up!" Papa must've noticed that I was about to puke because he said that. Robi got up and quickly grabbed a bowl for me and gave it to me. I threw up into the bowl. "That was a very bad decision!" I said. "I'm gonna go into the bathroom now..." Then I did just that.
