The Point of No Return {sequel to The Arbitrary life of Avery Blake [teacher]}4

Start from the beginning
                                        

‘T-thank you.’ I said as she continued. ‘-I also saw a boy. In the beginning pictures, he seemed nice and easy-going but then he begun to get darker and mysterious. His name was… Corbin and I feel such bad tension from you with just his name. He’s past now… and I feel it’s better for you that way. He abused you… he’s left you traumatised but your friends and boyfriend have been there for you and your soul is healing. It will never be the same because of your earlier years in life being abused and not cared for properly and then most recently, Corbin; but with time it will get better.’ She concluded.

I was left open mouthed at her words. A tear ran down my cheek at the remembrance of all of what she spoke of.

‘It will get better.’ She murmured again, almost to herself.

‘Past, check; present check; now time for the future?’ asked Meghann sounding like a geek. I knew she was trying to move onto another subject but I didn’t mind.

‘Very well, it is time for Tarot cards.’

‘Who shall start?’ she asked.

‘Avery can.’ Meghann said simply, looking over to me and smiling.

‘Uhh… OK.’ is all I said.

‘You will be partaking in the Open version. No questions asked. It will just be a summary of your future or what is expected to come. But please keep in mind that the future isn’t set, it can change at any time…’ she said whilst she opened the little box which was to the side of the table. She then took the Tarot Cards out and began to shuffle them with both hands. After a couple of seconds, she gathered them back together before proceeding with a regular card shuffle. Madam Melrose looked me in the eyes as she cut the desk and neatly placed them side-by-side. ‘We have time do we ladies?’ she asked. ‘Yes.’ We both answered.

She nodded as she gave a deal of 4 cards in front of me. She turned them over one by one as I examined them all.

‘The High Priestess reversed.’ Madam Melrose said as she pointed to the first card. It was hard to examine the card because it was upside down but it basically looked like a young woman sitting in a thrown of sorts, wearing a long, blue dress. She also wore a crown of sorts.

‘This card can be the wisest of them all but turned around it is very misunderstood. This card –I do not think- has much to do with you but someone who is constantly around you. She is young but not as young as you. She treasures the power she gains but also makes your life very much complicated. She’s deceived you many times and you can find no forgiveness in your heart for her although she needs all the help she can get as she is deeply misunderstood. She will soon change your life… being good or bad; depending on however you decide to view it. I will give you advice although you may not want it; you know who I am speaking about and I can see you have set your mind about her and her wrong doing but keep in mind people are as good as they are treated. She may not have treated you right in the first place but it will be her that makes you a better person.’ She concluded, giving me some time to think.

Yeah, I knew who she was talking about; could there be any other person? Kimberly Fletcher.

But I couldn’t believe a word of it… right? Madam was right, my mind as set on Kimberly, where she stood in my life and the way I thought about her. But I decided to put her and every thought about her to the back of my mind as I wanted to see where the other cards were going to take me.

Madam turned over another card. There were two naked people present on the card, most likely representing Adam and Eve. One was female and the other male. I couldn’t quite make out what the surroundings were but there was a big angel enveloped in a purple robe with beautiful big wings, giving praise to the man and woman. The card said The Lovers underneath it.
