“What kind of spread would you like today?”

I flattened my hands on my desktop and tried desperately to center myself. It was Friday, always a crazy day at the shop with women hoping to find that special outfit. Normally, I tried to do my weekly reading with Luna and Ryan on Sundays, but that day hadn’t gone as planned considering I’d woken up from my Saturday night wine bender in bed with August. Add in babymaking practice and a tarot card reading just hadn’t been in the plans.

The rest of the week had been a flurry of work and a couple of buying trips to trunk sales in a couple of nearby towns. Then I’d had dinner last night with Ivy after Rory left town once again, and she was in a woe spiral.

Seeing how upset my bestie became when Rory traveled for work had me evaluating a lot of things. Maybe this baby idea with August was actually a really smart plan. We were friends yet we could have a kid and not get tangled up with messy feelings that just complicated matters.

For two busy business owners, this made sense. It was like having the best of both worlds.

And I’d just keep telling myself that.

“I’ll take a Past-Present-Future reading, please.”

“Okay, Luna will shuffle while you think about your question.”

“Hold up.” Luna leaned toward the webcam, her bright blue eyes going wide. “You’re making a big life change. You’re red. Bold red today.”

I looked down at my white man-styled shirt with oversized cuffs paired with a long gauzy pink and purple skirt dotted with tiny wildflowers. “Not wearing a stitch of red.” I played dumb, though I full well knew she was referring to my aura. Typically, she tended to say I was a cool blue. “But I did pull out my favorite red lacy thong for this weekend.”

“I knew it! You’re seeing someone.”

Ryan leaned in closer, tipping her sleek long dark hair close to Luna’s bouncy blond shorter waves. “Oooh, I totally missed it. You’re right. She’s sexing on the regular. Tell us.”

Luna smacked her friend’s arm while I fixated on the pendant lights August had brought me and tried not to flush eight shades of crimson. “No, you don’t have to tell us.” She grabbed the deck of cards and shuffled gleefully. “The tarot will tell us all we need to know. Past-present-future, you said?”

I laughed and clutched the chunk of labradorite dangling from today’s necklace. I’d been called to this stone, probably because my spiritual path seemed very shaky lately. “Why do I do this to myself every week?”

“Because you love us and we always help interpret the cards in a way you appreciate.”

I frowned at Luna. “Does that mean you tell me what I like to hear?”

“No, of course not. The cards are the cards. We don’t lie. But there’s always a way to focus on the positive. That’s one of the tenets of Tarot Tramps.”

Ryan nodded sagely. “We came up with ground rules before we started the podcast.
