Five minutes later, I found myself sitting on the long and exorbitantly-priced sofa.
On either side of me were the twins, and peering from the sidelines were Sophie and Selina.
In front of me, across the coffee table, sat Emir.
"Okay, so do you want me to tell your birth card like I did with these two, or do you just want me to tell your fortune?"
He gestured to the twins and I asked.
"What's the difference?"
"Well, the way I do it is different because of my ability, but basically, a birth card is the card that most accurately represents who 'you' are in essence, and telling your fortune is just divination."
Babbling on excitedly, I gazed at Emir who spoke enthusiastically in a way I had never seen before.
Was it because it was related to the power of cartomancy he was born with?
Perhaps he felt an innate sense of affinity with these kinds of mystical entertainments.
