to me. What is it that you wanted to know, bella?”
“I want to know if I’m going to find a job and how things are going to go with my boyfriend.”
“What’s your name, bella and what’s your birth date?”
“Rosy Randazzo, the 5th of October, 1975.”
“Ah, Libra...cut the deck, bella.”
Rosy did as she was asked and then slowly did everything else the old lady asked. Finally, she ruled:
“Listen, bella, you will find a job but it won’t be for very long, you’re going to have to suffer a while longer... but then you will marry and have two beautiful baby boys.”
Rosy asked for more information about the job, and the woman answered that everything would go according to her wishes. Then she looked at Rosario and invited him to take the seat opposite her.
“What do you want to know?”
“I don’t know,” answered Rosario. “Whatever, I’ve never had a Tarot reading before.”
“Name and birth-date?”
“Rosario Mollica, 5th of February, 1954.”
“Oh an Aquarius, very good! Cut the deck and take five with your left hand.” Rosario did so.
“Listen dear, are you married?”
“No!” and he looked over at Rosy.
“You haven’t had a brilliant life so far. You’ve lived; or rather you’ve survived in mediocrity. You’ve always worked and earned money, but never the jackpot. Take another three cards with your left hand and don’t cross your legs. Fine...Unfortunately, things will go on like this for a short while but then everything will change.”
“What do you mean by a ‘while’?”
“Well nothing is going to happen until you are fortyseven, apart from a death in the family and then, in the second half of that year, you’ll meet the woman of your life and marry her. You will finally have good luck and great wealth...Up until that point I can see nothing very interesting.
“I’d say something was a bit off,” said Rosario. “And what is that, dear?”
“Ahem, well...I like men not women, so I don’t think it would be possible for me to fall in love with or marry a woman.”
“Oh my God! I wouldn’t say. Anyway it being a woman was just a detail...it might be that you fall for a man and go and live with him. Who knows?”
“Who knows!” retorted Rosario. They paid and left.

His father was already sick. He had lung cancer and had only been given a number of months to live. In March of 1999, he died without Rosario thinking of the old woman and the cards. He never forgot, however, about what was supposed to happen when he was 47. Still nothing had happened and the second half of the year was starting. Did his meeting Lorenzo in June of that year mean something? But Rosario wasn’t in love with Lorenzo, not that he didn’t care about him. And could that supposed windfall be in some way connected with his patent. He was skeptical but there were so many strange events taking place. It had been over a year since he had last spoken to Rosy, so one day he called her:
“Hi Rosy, how’s it going?”
“Rosario! Hello! How long has it been? Right, I’ve gotten married am pregnant with twins.”
“Are you serious?”
“Yes it’s true! Remember the old woman with the cards said it would happen?”
“Although didn’t she say they would be male twins?”
“Well they’re still twins. Anyway how are you? Have you found the love of your life yet?”
“That’s exactly why I’m calling. I’ve met someone and we’ve been going out a lot together…and we get on really well.”
“Well, that must be him then!”
“What? No! You know I still don’t believe in that rubbish. When are you due, Rosy?”
“Mid-September.”
“Right, tell me as soon as they’re born. I’ve got to go. Love you babe, ciao!”
He was left thinking for a moment but didn’t know what to think. So many coincidences were happening all at once, especially now what with the news of Rosy’s twins. It was not what he had needed to hear now, not at all.
