You Were Always Coming

At the edge of nowhere, where the world forgets its name, a single tent waits — silent, still, inevitable.

Inside, the air is thick with time. Candles flicker. Velvet breathes secrets. And she is there.

The Fortune Teller.

She doesn’t ask who you are. She already knows.
She sees it in the way you hesitate before sitting.
Hears it in the breath you didn’t realize you were holding.
Reads it in the way your fingers tremble — not from cold, but memory.

You say nothing.

She deals three cards.

Each one is a mirror.
A shard of your past. A wound you buried. A choice you once denied.
And now, it returns — not to haunt, but to ask:

What will you do with what you carry?

You will choose.
And she will listen — not with pity, but with purpose.

There is no right answer.
Only honesty.
Only consequence.

You may only visit her once.
But in truth, you’ve always been walking toward that tent.
The question was never if.

It was always when.
