Today's a day like any other But I'm changed, I am a mother Oh, in an instant And who I was has disappeared It doesn't matter, now you're here So innocent

I was lost For you to find And now I'm yours, and you are mine

[blueflyingturtleontheway]

Blanca and Roberto, “You are what’s important now.”

So this takes places when Roberto and Blanca are older teenagers-young adults and aren't dating yet

Roberto was kicking the ball at full speed. Ten meters. Five meters. Two. He jumped, but instead of reaching the hoop he felt the ground come closer and a sharp scream force its way out of his chest as he fell.

"Roberto!"

He pulled his right leg to his chest, closed his eyes shut and pursed his lips to stop another scream of pain.

"Roberto are you okay?" He felt a hand on his arm and slowly opened his eyes.

"Blanca?" He wheezed through gritted teeth. "I had no idea you're in Avalor City?"

"And I had no idea your ankle has healed already." There was a reproach hidden behind her eyes and in her voice that made Roberto's gaze fall to the ground.

"It was better," he mumbled, knowing there was no fooling her.

"Oh so you decided to make it worse again?" She snapped.

Roberto didn't answer. Blanca sighed.

"Can you stand up?"

Roberto hesitated.

"Sure I can, I just... need to catch my breath. I'll be right up. And back to the training," he said finally, not looking her in the eye.

Blanca shook her head.

"Stay here - and don't move." She shot him a warning glance and ran out of the stadium.

Roberto waited a moment and once he was sure she couldn't see or hear him anymore, he let out a loud groan and fell to his back. He was still clutching his ankle and he could already feel it swelling up. He let out another shaky breath and wanted to shout in pain and frustration - but the only words coming to his mind weren't ones he wanted to risk Blanca hearing.

Suddenly he perked up, hearing her come back, and tried to stand up.

"Wait!" She called, runnimg up to him. She gave him her hand to help him catch his balance and then gave him a long, thick branch. "Here, I know it's no crutches but it should do for now."

"Thanks." Roberto sent her a smile.

"Now come on, I'll walk you home," she continued.

"But-" Roberto wanted to argue but Blance had already picked up her bag, she dropped earlier to help him, and started towards the gate. He shook his head and sighed (to hide his smile). He picked up his ball and as quickly as he could, limped her way - he knew any resistance was pointless anyway.

Once he caught up to her, Blanca slowed down, so he wouldn't strain his leg even more, and for a long while they walked in silence. Finally she spoke up again.

"So are you going to tell me why did you suddenly become so stupid or do you want me to guess?" She kept her gaze locked on the road before them, but Roberto could feel that she was irritated.

He chuckled to let the edge down a little.

"Ouch, stupid, really?" He tried to take on his best pained expression - although it's not like he wasn't actually in pain. "You know an olaball player must always keep in shape."

"In shape?!" Blanca stopped and faced him. "And what shape is that? One legged cripple?!"

Alright, maybe she was more than irritated.

"Oh come on, there's a match in a few months, I just wanted to practice a few new tricks."

Blanca didn't answer but her eyes were saying more than she would dare to say out loud, and he, for one, was glad she didn't.

Roberto looked at the ground.

"Come on Blanca, you know I can't let down my team..." he added quietly.

"And you think you'll be of much help if you won't be able to even walk?" There was still an edge in her voice but it had regained some of its usual softness. "Who cares about the match," she put a hand to his chest. "You're what's important now."

She quickly took her hand back when she noticed a bright red blush on Roberto's face - probably equal to her own.

"Your team would probably say the same," she said adjusting her bag on her shoulder. "Now come on, we need to take you home"

Roberto stood frozen for a moment more before shaking his head and picking up his limping pace to keep up with her.

"Hmm you know I'll probably need some first aid too..." he said with a wide grin.

I won't lie, that was difficult XD But I think it came out quite well and I might even have a little better idea for their relationship now...

Biden anuncia paquete de medidas para frenar ingreso de inmigrantes

La contienda electoral para definir quién llevará las riendas de Estados Unidos está a cinco meses de efectuarse, mientras tanto los dos candidatos siguen desarrollando estrategias para convencer a los votantes y ocupar el 20 de enero del 2025 la Casa Blanca. Durante los últimos meses, la crisis migratoria en el país ha cobrado mayor importancia y rápidamente se ha convertido en un tema central del debate para definir si el presidente Joe Biden continúa en el poder o si por el contrario Donald Trump logra derrotarlo y vuelve a ser presidente. Blas Núñez-Nieto, Subsecretario de Política Fronteriza e Inmigración / Homeland Security. En una rueda de prensa para medios latinos,  el subsecretario de Política Fronteriza e Inmigración del Departamento de Seguridad del Territorio Nacional de Estados Unidos, Blas Núñez-Nieto explicó que “las decisiones están diseñadas para fortalecer la seguridad de nuestras fronteras y reducir los flujos migratorios. Estas medidas se basan en los pasos que hemos tomado para reducir la migración en todo el hemisferio y reforzar la seguridad de Estados Unidos”.  En el paquete de medidas se establece que aquellos que crucen ilegalmente no podrán acceder o solicitar asilo; se debe realizar desde el país de origen. Igualmente, aquellas personas ilegales que están en Estados Unidos y suponen un riesgo para la seguridad del país serán expulsados inmediatamente. Al respecto, Nuñez-Nieto dijo que esa disposición del Gobierno Biden permitirá la repatriación de ilegales de manera más rápida. Igualmente, manifestó que "este esfuerzo continúa demostrando el compromiso para asegurar la frontera y gestionar la migración de una manera integral y equilibrada".  Igualmente, el subsecretario aseguró que a través de estas medidas y en el último año se han devuelto a más de 750 mil personas, "más que en cualquier otro año desde el 2010" y también pidió que "no pongan sus vidas en las manos del crimen organizado para cruzar la frontera de manera ilegal".  Tomás Pérez, Asesor sénior del Presidente y director de la Oficina de Asuntos Intergubernamentales. “Estas medidas no son permanentes. Se suspenderán cuando el número de inmigrantes que crucen la frontera entre los puertos de entrada sea lo suficientemente bajo como para que el sistema estadounidense pueda garantizar una gestión segura y eficaz de las operaciones fronterizas”, indica el comunicado oficial. A su turno, el asesor sénior del Presidente y director de la Oficina de Asuntos Intergubernamentales, Tomás Pérez dijo que "estamos trabajando con el Gobierno de México y presidentes de la región” y aseguró que todas estas medidas contrastan con la manera en la que trabajó la administración anterior.  “Demonizaron a los inmigrantes, constituyeron redadas máximas, separaron familias en la frontera y pusieron niños en jaulas. El pueblo quiere una frontera segura y oportunidades de migración legal. El presidente Biden está comprometido para trabajar el fallido sistema de migración para seguir dando oportunidades”, puntualizó Pérez.  En su momento, el presidente Biden publicó en su cuenta de X que busca que el sistema de inmigración sea más justo y equitativo, tomando decisiones rápidas y contundentes “decisiones más rápidas significan que es menos probable que un migrante le pague a un traficante criminal miles de dólares para que lo lleve en el peligroso viaje hasta aquí”.

WOS: El Oscuro Extasis que inundo Nuñez

El joven cantante/freestyler se presentó en el mítico estadio de Núñez, después de casi dos años de pandemia y varios lanzamientos en él medio. En mayo de 2020, con “Tres Puntos Suspensivos” y 18 de noviembre de 2021 “Oscuro Éxtasis”, siendo la presentación de este el motivo de las 4 fechas.

En 22/12 la última de las 4, todas agotada, la primera de todas las sorpresas para un público hambriento de saltar y cantar fue el lugar donde eligió Wos arrancar el show. Todos mirando hacia el escenario principal empiezan a escuchar los primeros acordes de “Introducción al Éxtasis” para darse cuenta que a espaldas del campo y frente a la platea alta aparecía Valentín bañado por un haz de luz.

Luego del sorpresivo arranque, siguió con el orden natural del disco, sonando “Buitres” ya si en el escenario y acompañado por su banda, entre ellos Evlay, productor musical del disco y en cargado de la guitarra, y la bajista (ex Russ)

Inicia “Culpa” un tema que reboto en todo rincón de obras, con un video de Mollo, el otro compositor del track, cantando a la par del público.

Wosito se caracteriza no solo por sus letras si no por el carisma y simpatía que demuestra a sus seguidores, dejando en claro una vez más la versatilidad que maneja sobre el escenario y a la hora de componer. Esto queda claro cuando aparece en escena Acru deleitando, junto con el principal protagonista, a los espectadores con varios minutos de freestyle y la hermosa conexión que demuestran desde el lanzamiento del tema “Animal” el cual no sonó.

Como segundo invitado, se encontraba Ca7riel, saltando de una punta a la otra con la significativa energía de “Niño Gordo”.

Sin dejar afuera ninguno de los temas del disco, también sonaron “Alma Dinamita”; “40”; “Melón Vino” y “Canguro” desatando esta ultima el famoso cantico del publico contra el ex presidente Mauricio Macri “MMLPQTP”.

Luego de emotivas palabras del también actor, sobre su experiencia en estas fechas y agradecimientos a la gente que lo sigue, parecía que todo terminaría con “Mugre” en una hermosa puesta de escena con luces rojas, el en cuclillas apuntado por varias luces blancas y la compañía de un excelente coro. Pero tras la esperada insistencia del público, vuelven a salir al escenario, él y la banda para tocar “Púrpura” y así dar por finalizado el evento.

Luego de un tiempo indefinido a raíz de la pandemia, wos se retira de obras, con un show épico, donde nos dejó con ganas de otra presentación.

But there's something you should know I was there I was there In my heart, in every prayer Never said it out loud But I've always been proud If you somehow can forgive me I'll...be...there

[blueflyingturtleontheway]

So, I've heard some voices here and there lamenting how little Gabe content - especially new Gabe content - there was and you know what? I completely agree, so I thought why not, I can try to add my little droplet into this tiny sea of Gabe appreciation we have here on tumblr.

Summary: Elena visits Gabe in his house for the first time and learns something new about his past.

Word count: 1937

AN: just some friendly fluff really, headcanon heavy, from Elena's POV but Gabe centric

"Oh, watch out, the first step is-" Gabe turned around just in time to catch Elena when she started to fall backwards. "-loose."

"Thanks for the warning." Elena shot him a glare when she regained her balance. In response Gabe only sent her an unapologetic grin and pulled her up on the next step.

"Everyone's so used to it by now that we keep forgetting to fix it with my dad," he explained as they finally reached the first floor.

The stairs led to a narrow corridor, with the same room placement as the bakery beneath it. Two doors on the right, one on the left and a wide opening to the living room at the end. In a few brisk steps Gabe opened the door on the left and invited Elena in with a courteous gesture.

"Welcome to my humble abode, your highness."

Her highness graced him with a nod and slipped by him, into the small room. Elena gave it a quick one over. It was indeed small - in fact, there probably wasn't much more space than what each guard got at the barracks - and the decor wasn't much fancier either. Cream colored walls, a thin bed by the window, a wardrobe opposite of it, one wall taken up by a bookshelf and a small cabinet by another made up basically all the furnishing of the room.

"Humble is a good word." She nodded solemnly, earning herself an eye roll from her friend. They both chuckled.

"Hey, it's your room that's out of the norm, you know?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about," Elena retorted, thinking about how three or even four such rooms would fit into hers. She walked over to the cabinet and picked up some trinket. "But it's nice to finally see where you grew up."

Gabe couldn't stop a fond smile sneaking onto his lips when he noticed the badge she was examining.

"Yeah and I didn't really get to change much here in the past five years. For example this thing I got back when-"

"Gabriel!" He was interrupted by his mother's voice from the bakery.

"I'll tell you in a moment," he sighed. "Make yourself at home!" He added from the doors and quickly ran downstairs to his parents.

Elena took another look around the room. It wasn't entirely empty, she had to admit that, and the poster of Antonio Agama on the inner side of the door confirmed that Gabe didn't change the decor much since he moved out.

She moved to the bookshelf and moved her hand across the titles - though there weren't that many of them to count. The lower shelves were taken up by some boxes and bags and what could've been a neatly packaged tent. Then finally a whole shelf dedicated to the whole collection of Antonio Agama's books. Elena chuckled to herself when she read some of the more dramatic titles and noticed even one that wasn't in Avaloran. On the next shelf, between other various travel books and biographies, was only one book by señor Agama, titled simply 'The Gecko's Tale'. Driven by a hunch she took it out and couldn't help but laugh when she read the blurb on the back. Although that explained how the whole kingdom found out that she's a bit adventurous too.

Finally her gaze got to the plant on top of the mantle. Hidden so deep in the room, it extended its ivy like stalks towards the sun, climbing a string helpfully hung between the bookshelf and the window.

Down on the windowsill two other plants looked out on the little cobbled square behind the house. Elena leaned in to smell the orchid and noticed something half hidden behind the pot. Slowly, so as not to accidentally damage the plant, she reached for trinket and retrieved it into the light. It turned out to be a wooden doll, painted to resemble a familiar navy and maroon uniform...

"Is this you?" She turned to Gabe as soon as he entered the room and showed him the figurine with a wide smile.

Gabe stopped for a moment. Furrowed his brows as he tried to see what Elena was even holding, and then furrowed his brows even more when he recognised it.

"Of course not," he grumbled, closing the small distance between them. "It's just an old thing anyway."

"It does look a bit like you though." She jumped away from him at the last moment.

Gabe gasped. Elen giggled and moved her hand away when he tried to reach her.

"Why would I even have a figurine of myself?"

For a moment they circled each other, like two lions judging if it's worthy to fight the opponent for a steak, except the steak was now wooden and 15 centimetres high. They both hunched subconsciously and made their steps in the fencing manner.

"I don't know, why does Esteban have a whole wall of his own portraits?" A sly grin slid on her face. "But I see you've decided to match his collection."

"Oh now you've done it." Gabe shook his head to hide his smile and in the split of a second was right by her. Feigning to go right for the prize, he swiped her legs out from under her.

Elena waved her hands in the air giving Gabe just the opportunity he was waiting for. He swiftly yanked the figurine from her hands, giving her the last push to fall backwards completely. He turned his head with a victorious grin, just in time to see her legs rising at the height of his knees. And suddenly the ground was much closer than before.

He folded his arms to his chest, protecting the figurine with his body and rolled on the floor. Though he didn't have to roll far, of which he was promptly reminded by his head crushing into the cupboard.

He groaned loudly and let his body fall limply to the floor.

His pained complaint was answered by Elena's laughter from the bed.

"I'm getting too old for this," he mumbled and Elena's laughter only got louder.

Finally he sat up and lifted the figurine to his face. He carefully examined it for any cracks or splinters, checked if the joints in the limbs didn't fall out and most importantly if the head was still on firm. Finally when he made sure the trinket didn't get damaged, he let out a relieved sigh.

"You're lucky it's still whole," he grumbled, rising to his feet.

"Hey, I was being careful." Elena now sat up too and sent him a playful smirk. "All the way until you decided to trip me like that."

Gabe rolled his eyes again and huffed in pretended annoyance.

"So if it's not a limited edition General Nuñez action figure," Elena continued. "What is it?"

Gabe sat down next to her and thought of an answer for a moment. He changed the position of the little soldier's arms and reached for a pin to put into his hand as a sword.

"It's really just an old toy," he said finally. "But you know, it has sentimental value."

He finally passed Elena the figurine, so she could take a look at it herself. It wasn't as old as she thought at first. The paint was faded, but still held onto the uneven surface of the wood and as she moved her fingers across it, she realized that it must've been all whittled by hand, by someone who put great care in it, but wasn't a professional.

Still the amount of details was impressive, especially in the construction of the thing. She moved the tiny soldier into the proper fencing position and to her delight found out that it fits flawlessly, the wire on the joints creaked quietly, as if it had been waiting for an opportunity to shine for ages.

She glanced between the figurine and Gabe on her left for comparison. The uniform, despite the familiar colours, was a tad different, it resembles more what she remembered from her childhood, than the uniform Gabe was wearing at the moment.

"I got it from my first fencing teacher," he continued.

"The same one who threw coconuts at you driving training?" Elena raised a brow, earning herself a chuckle.

"Yeah, the same one." A sad smile reached the corners of his eyes as old memories resurfaced in his memory. "He was a tough man and always talked about how big an annoyance I am, but -" he gestured to the figurine and shrugged.

"Well, that explains why it looks like you," Elena bumped him with her shoulder. "I'm sure he could've already seen that you'll be a great guard."

"Oh, I don't think he even wanted me to be a guard," Gabe laughed again. "But you know, the situation was a bit different." He pondered something for a moment before continuing. "And to be fair, I didn't even realize that it was supposed to be a guard at the time, I was pretty sure he just came up with the design by himself. I only really connected the dots a few years ago, when I found this old thing again."

Elena nodded silently and put a comforting hand on his arm. She could see that this topic wasn't easy for him.

"Though maybe what you said was the point." He straightened suddenly and his gaze went back to the figurine. "Maybe he wasn't completely against me joining the guard, just... joining the right one."

His smile became wider and it was like his whole face lit up. Elena raised the little soldier's arms to make it cheer. They both laughed at how expressive this piece of wood was.

"So where is your coach now?" Elena asked, caressing the wooden toy one more time.

He only sighed at first and for a moment his gaze became clouded again, before he shook his head to cast the memories away.

"I wish I knew," he sent her a sad smile. "One day he just... disappeared. A few trinkets and one letter is all the proof I have that he wasn't just my hallucination."

Elena's lips twitched in a matching sad smile, but before she could say anything, they both heard a voice from downstairs, calling the unmistakable word 'dinner!'

Gabe clapped his hands on his knees and sprung up to his feet.

"Ah, just in time", he extended his hand to Elena. "I think eating is a much more fun topic than discussing the weird things I did in my childhood."

Elena examined his face for a moment more, but gave up on asking all the questions that pushed to the tip of her tongue. She sent him a smile instead and accepted his hand.

"Oh, you mean you did more weird things?" She made the little figurine gasp.

"I feel like I shouldn't have started this topic," Gabe laughed.

"Oh no, you won't escape now." She poked him in the chest and put the little soldier in his hand. "I gotta know all the crazy stories."

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you something," Gabe raised his hands in defeat. "But you can't mention it to my parents, please, they'll never stop until they tell you my whole life story."

Elena made a theatrical gesture of tapping her lips in thought as she backed out of the room.

"I'll consider it," she sent him a wide grin and in a second turned and ran towards the stairs.

"Hey- wait!" Gabe called out, running right after her to save what was left of his reputation.

Feedback, Reblogs and constructive criticism is welcome💖

I Will Make You Proud

It was a beautiful day in Avalor, the people were getting everything ready and prepped for the Peace Festival. It had been 40 years and since they last had a Peace Festival, Thanks to Shuriki ruling over Avalor and banning Avalor from having any festivals. Now that Shuriki was defeated thanks to Princess Elena and her friends they were able to celebrate all the festivals Shuriki had banned.

Every year during the Peace Festival, Avalor hosts an Olaball competition. The Royal courts compete against each other to win and take home the golden cup. Gabe’s order’s were to pick up Elena and Naomi, and take them to the arena where they would meet up with the rest of the team. “Wow Elena, everyone seems so excited and busy for the festival.” Naomi said.

“Well it’s been 40 years since the last time we had a peace festival. Now that Shuriki is gone, I thought it be a great idea to bring back the peace festival to celebrate the lasting peace between Avalor and the kingdom of Carina.”Elena replied with a smile.

“I guess Shuriki wasn’t into a lot of “peace”. Naomi stated. “No not really.” Elena answered.

“We all know the real reason why everyone is so exited.” Naomi said with a smile.

“Olaball!” They both shouted excitedly together.

Gabe pulled on the horses reigns to stop the coach, Elena and Naomi got down and made their way to the arena. The first thing they see is Luisa blowing the whistle having the team do drills, Elena and Naomi glance at each other. Before they could say something to each other Abuela Luisa blew the whistle telling them to join the others doing running drills. Gabe glances at the team “I’ll see you guys later.” Gabe said with a soft chuckle.

The coach began to move, “I’ll go visit my parents while I’m here in town” Gabe thought to himself. A few minutes passed, Gabe pulled the reigns stopping the coach. “Mama! Papa!” Gabe said opening the door to the bakery.

“Gabriel!” Blanca said giving her son a hug.

“Sorry I’m late I had to take the princess to Olaball practice.” Gabe explained.

Gabe’s dad turned to see his son, “Really, how does the team look? Do you think they are ready for the big game?.Roberto asked enthusiastically.

“Beats me. You know I don’t follow Olaball ball.” Gabe answered putting on an apron.

“Who doesn’t follow Olaball?.” Roberto said with a scoff.

Gabe gazed down sadly for a moment. Blanca saw the tension between her husband and son, she tried to move on. “Mijo why don’t you help me stir the filling.” Blanca asked handing Gabe the bowl and spoon.

Gabe looked back up and took the bowl, “Of Course Mama.” Gabe said with a small smile. Gabe began to mix the empanada filling, there was a few seconds of silence before Gabe spoke up. “It’s about time we bring back that award to Avalor right papa?” Gabe stated.

“Trophy, it’s a trophy.” Roberto sighed frustratedly.

“Right trophy.” Gabe said looking to the side. “You know, I actually work with the team spiker.” Gabe stated with a smile.

“Striker, He’s called a striker.”Roberto said as the pan he had cluttered as he put it down.

Gabe tried to brush it off and continue. “Right Striker. Well fillings done” Gabe said handing his father the spoon to taste it. Roberto took the spoon from Gabe and tasted it.

“It’s not good enough, I’ll have to redo it myself.” Roberto said frustratedly.

Gabe sighs frustratedly “I’m trying to help, what do you want from me?” Gabe said grabbing a bag of flour.

“I want you to help me run the bakery.” Roberto answered grabbing the other side of the flour from his son.

“We’ve already been through this, papa. I’m a royal guard not a baker.” Gabe said still holding the bag of flour.

“The name of this bakery is Nuñez and Son. I’m Nuñez your supposed to be the Son.” Roberto said as he pulled the bag of flour to his side causing it to rip spilling all the flour on the flour. “Ugh, My lucky Jersey.” Roberto said storming out of the room.

Gabe gazes down sadly shaking his head, “I gotta get back to work.” Gabe stated giving him mom a kiss on the cheek.

“Gabriel.” Blanca said as she went after her son. “Please stay”. She said almost pleading to her son. Gabe gazes down as he hears his mother asking him to stay.

“Just once it would be nice if something I did would made him happy you know?” Gabe said with a sigh.

“I know, but you know how stubborn your papá can be.” Blanca answered.

Gabe had his head down his eyes looking to the ground, Blanca gently lifts his head to see his face. “You make me happy Mijo.” Blanca said with a soft smile.

Gabe looks up at his mom and gives a small smile, “Thanks mamá. Gabe said giving his mom a hug. Blanca embraced the hug of her son and hugged him back. Gabe waves goodbye to his mamá and heads back to the castle. Gabe pulls up in front of the castle and opens the door to the study where everyone was sitting figuring what they were going to do Next.

“Princess Elena, I came to say I’m back.” Gabe said saluting Elena.

Luisa went toward Gabe asking him if he would be able to take Rico place in the team because he hurt his ankle. Gabe pondered a few minutes thinking about the offer, he wasn’t really good at Olaball or even into the sport. Elena comes over and encourages him to play, “Gabe it would mean a lot to us if you played for our team.” Elena said encouragingly. “Plus I think your parents would love to see you play.” Elena said putting her hand on his shoulder.

“Alright count me in!” Gabe said looking at Elena with a smile.

Gabe was excited to tell his parents, this could be his chance to prove that he can make his papá proud. To win that trophy and see the look on his father’s face when he brings it home. Gabe went to his parents house to tell them the news. “ Mamá, Papá, I’m going to be on the Olaball team.” Gabe said with a smile.

“Ahahah! That’s great news! I can teach you all my tricks.” Roberto said with excitement. “Come let’s go practice outside, I’ll show you all my signature moves that will win us that trophy.” Robert said grabbing a ball.

Gabe nodded and followed his Papá outside. “This move I call the Roberto round house.” Roberto said giving Gabe a demonstration. “Now you try it.” Roberto said kicking the ball to Gabe who just caught it with his hands. “No hands In Olaball.” Roberto corrected him.

“Sorry reflexes.” Gabe said with a small chuckle. Gabe tossed the ball into the air and tries to do the same move his dad did. As Gabe spins and tries to kicks the ball, but he misses it causing him to loose his balance and fall to the ground.

“No that’s not how you do it.” Roberto signs pinching the bridge of his nose. “Let me show you the Roberto Rumba.” Roberto said as he demonstrated his next move.

Gabe watches attentively, as soon as his dad was done Roberto passed him the ball to try the Roberto Ramba. “Roberto Ramba.” Gabe said as he tossed the ball into the air and bumped it with his hips aiming for the goal. The ball flew across the house missing the goal.

“Let’s try this again.” Roberto said with a sigh.

Gabe tries a few more times to do his dads moves, but he couldn’t do them like his dad causing the ball to always miss the goal.

“Let’s take a break.” Roberto said with a disappointed sigh and walked into the house.

Gabe sighed and sat down thinking how he disappointed his and he would never make him proud. Blanca saw her husband walk inside mumbling to himself, she gazes outside and sees Gabe sitting alone. She walks outside and sits next to her son. “Mijo what’s wrong?” Blanca asked with a soft tone.

“I hoped I’d be better than when I was a kid but, Nope still awful.” Gabe answered frustratedly. “I thought If I joined the team and help them win the trophy, then I’d finally do something to make Papá proud of me.” Gabe said gazing down sadly to the floor.

“Ever since I became a royal guard Papá has been different. I know he wants me to run the bakery and be an Olaball player but.. I’m not a baker and I’m not good a playing Olaball. The only thing left for me so try and make Papá proud was Olaball.” Gabe stated.

“I can’t help but think that I’ll never make him proud. what if I keep failing him? What if I do something wrong? What if I don’t win this trophy for him he’ll be disappointed in me more than he is now?.”Gabe said with a sigh. “All I want is to make you and Papá proud of me.” Gabe said with his head bowed to the ground.

Blanca remained quiet thinking of what she was going to say, she knew her husband was stubborn and wanted different things for their son. She knew all Gabe wanted to do was make them proud of him. especially his father, it’s all he ever wanted to do.

“Gabriel Mijo, we are proud of you. I’m proud of you.” Blanca said with a soft smile looking at her son who’s head was still eyeing the ground. “ I know how stubborn your papá can be, but he just wants what’s best for you.” Blanca said with a small smile.

Gabe briefly looked at his mom and gazes down once again.

“Gabriel, You probably don’t remember this because you were just a little boy, but when you were younger you would always tell us that you wanted to protect your home and fight bad guys that tired to invaded Avalor. You wanted to be a guard, it was your dream.” Blanca said with a small chuckle at the memory. Gabe looks up at his mom.

“Really? I said I wanted to be a guard?.” Gabe asked.

“Yes, you made a little sword and pretend you were fighting.” Blanca said with a smile.

“I didn’t know that mamá.” Gabe said with a small chuckle.

“You had quite the imagination Mijo, I thought it was cute seeing you wanting to make a difference and save your home. Your papa saw it differently, he was worried about you. Being a guard is a dangerous job sometimes because you put your life in danger to save others. That’s all your papa saw if you were to follow that path, your papa cares about bastante Gabriel. That’s why he tried to push you to play OlaballI ball, or run the bakery with him.” Blanca said gently lifting her sons head to see him face to face.

“Your papa won’t admit it but, he loves you very much Gabriel. He even told me that he wishes that you would like what he likes, so you two can connect and have something in common. Tu papa can get carried away sometimes trying to make you into something your not, but Mijo you can’t be like him or anyone else. You can only be yourself because that’s who you truly are. Your papa has a hard time seeing that your not a little boy anymore, your a grown young man that has his own dreams.” Blanca stated softly.

Gabe stayed quiet pondering on everything his mama just told him, “If papa loves me then why doesn’t he show it? Every time I come visit to help him he’s always saying nothing I do is good enough.” Gabe said with a sigh. “

“Mijo I can’t give you a straight answer as to why your papa is like that. Maybe it’s because he wanted you to follow in his footsteps, but you decided to follow your own path.” Blanca answered gazing at Roberto inside the house.

“Mijo I know you want to make your papa proud, and gain his approval, but you can’t change or become someone you don’t want to be because your trying to please please him. Gabriel your special just the way you are, your a great at your job, and your good at what you do. If you love something and your good at it, you should pursue it.” Blanca said setting her gaze back to Gabe.

“Gabriel, I am so proud of you and what you’re become and accomplished. I know you will win the Olaball challenge and bring back that trophy.” Blanca said looking into her sons eyes with a soft smile on her face.

Gabe gave a small smile back and embraced his mama in a hug, “Grasias Mama.” Gabe said with a smile.

Blanca smiled and hugged back. “Your papa is very proud of you too Mijo, even if he doesn’t always show it. He loves you very much, we both do.” She said hugging her son tighter.

Gabe was the first one to gently pull away, they both smiled at each other. “I have to go now mama, I’m going to meet Princess Elena at the Olaball court. She is going to train me for the big game.” Gabe said as he stood up.

“I know you’ll win this game Mijo.” Blanca said with a smile standing up.

“Grasias Mama, I will make you proud. Te Amo Mama.” Gabe said kissing his mom on the cheek.

“Mijo I am already proud of you,Te Amo tambien.” Blanca said with a soft smile.

Gabe smiled and made his way to the coach. Blanca waved goodbye as she saw her son get on the coach and ride away.
