Hello! Hope someone can help. Whenever I add a new contact on my iPhone, it's added to my gmail account rather than my iCloud account, so therefore my newly-added contacts aren't syncing on my MacBook via iCloud. How do I fix?

Hello! Hope someone can help. Whenever I add a new contact on my iPhone, it's added to my gmail account rather than my iCloud account, so therefore my newly-added contacts aren't syncing on my MacBook via iCloud. How do I change it so anytime I add a contact, it's put into my iCloud by default?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14
