A Psychic Told Me to Stick Around

That’s right. But did I pay for her services? Nope.

Sometimes people (including myself) will say psychics are fake, that stuff isn’t real. It’s all vague round-a-bouts for real life situations.

And yes, sometimes it is. But not this one. This one knew what she was saying and to who. She was an older woman, Jamaican maybe. She saw me sitting in the plaza and came right up to me and sat down.

Is this seat taken.

No, Ma’am.

She stared at me for a few minutes before asking my name and birthday. It was odd but I figured she wanted to know my astrological sun sign, so I said my name and sign and she said back to me so fast, No honey. You’re actual birth date.

Oh. Okay.

Ahh, you’re 30 years old. Where’s your husband.
I don’t have one.
Do you love a man?
I’m not sure.
The one you love —
With a slight smile I interrupt — I’m not in love.
Yes, you are. The one you love, wait for him. He knows you love him.

I was confused. I thought she was just making banter at first. I felt like I was in the rural south with this old woman randomly talking to me. Is this a sign?

This left me with the question in my head of am I in love? Who do I love? Why? How? So many things are going through my head.
