your future is served cold

Make a single wish.

That's what I tell people before I tell their fortune by looking at a cup of coffee dust.

It's not fake, I don't make stories up. The stories are already there. I use those weird shapes in the cup to sharpen my perception of the person looking at me with hope-seeking eyes. I just let my imagination go wild to see their intentions better. And when they believe that I might -only might- know what is to come for them, their intentions are glass clear. When they become visible, their stories become visible. These people let their ridiculous walls down. They voice their fears. They breathe faster.They ask for what they believe will carry them to the highest rock they can imagine. People, and money, a different life and more people. Very, very basic and usually innocent... It's easy. Anyone who listens close enough can tell anyone's future because every story and every person is predictable...
