Destiny & Distance

Disclaimer before starting the chapter:

Gabbie's mom doesn't know English yet here so the chapter will be all-Spanish since Sara & Gabbie both speak the language, but I'm going to write everything in English just because it think it'd occupy too much space to write in Spanish and the English translation—you just, think they're speaking Spanish.

And, I'm also applying for the 2019 Wattys -first time participating- I'm excited, wish me luck!

Nothing else to add, so enjoy

Today is my day off, I decided to go to my parent's place and spend the day there, my dad is working but Sara is free, also, my mother hasn't gotten a job yet, so it'll be a girls evening. I'm not feeling that well today because the morning sickness attacked, I thought I vomited the day I found out about the pregnancy because I was also hungover, but false alarm, I guess the baby plans on making me feel sick for a while... Let's just hope it isn't that way

—She spent the whole night vomiting -Sara tells my mom while I close my eyes, trying to relax or forget the fact that I'm nauseous-

—Did you make her the chicken soup?

—She didn't wanted to eat anything, barely drink water

—I was the exact same as Gaby when I was pregnant with her, I'd spend the whole day vomiting and feeling sick. Nothing would calm me, and to think it lasted around 5 months...

—You're not giving me any hopes -I say with my eyes closed still, I hear my sister's chuckles-

—Thank you for letting me know I don't want to be pregnant, like ever! -Sara jokes, but I wasn't in the mood for jokes-

—I just found out my sister is the biggest moron ever -I harshly say-

—Hey! Don't lean your sickness on me, it's not my fault my niece or nephew wants to make you feel bad

—Sara?! Your sister's feeling sick and you're not helping, at all. In fact, you're annoying her, why don't you go out and count how many clouds are in the sky today? -my mom defends me in a funny way, Sara sighs and I hear the door carefully close-

—Thanks for that, momma -I snicker-

—It's okay baby girl -she sits besides me and runs her hand through my forehead- you're sweating, you should take this hoodie off

—No -I pout- it reminds me of Chris, it smells like him

—Gaby, Chris left just yesterday, don't act as if you haven't seen him in years

—I feel like I haven't seen him in years -I admit almost in a whimper-

—So Chris got you pregnant through Skype? Now that's awesome, let's call him Holy Spirit 2.0

—Oh my, mom!! -I burst out laughing, opening my eyes to look at her- can't believe you

—I'm glad I made you laugh -she says smilingly, I cuddle near her and close my eyes again- you know, Gaby, I'm having flashbacks... I remember when you were just a little girl and you would spend the whole day cuddling with me, you didn't wanted to go outside and play with your friends, all you wanted to do is watch The Grinch, My Girl and cuddle with your mom -she pauses and takes a deep breath- I can't believe my little girl is expecting her first child, I always thought of this moment and I was like «I need to give her this advise, this one's good. I won't forget to tell her to do this and that» but now that you're actually pregnant it's like I forgot almost everything, my mind is a blank space right now -she lets out a giggle-
