“I have six brothers and sisters. There was always someone talking in my house. But I was the one that when I said something, everyone would go, ‘oh, here goes Gabi,’ because everyone knew I was about to go on a tangent.” The next time I look from the pan to her, her eyes are on me again. “There have only ever been two people who went along with the chaos in my mind. My dad and now, you.”
