The Myriad Fortune Teller
11 Myriad Circle
Madame Lunette Forrel gestured the couple to sit.
“You are seeking compassion for a dying loved one. The future.”
“How did you…”
“Shh,” she placed a finger to her lips.
They were astonished for three hours, stunned, as each new prediction increased with detailed accuracy.
Madame Lunette finished and presented them with the bill.
“Do you take credit?”
“I will get my credit reader,” the gold bangles on the velvet red curtains jangled as she exited.
The couple gave each other a look before bolting out the door and running through an alley.
“That was expensive!”
“She couldn’t have been that good anyway."
"How so?"
"If she could really see the future, she would’ve seen that coming.”
