— I... am your fate.

And at that moment, the candles go out.

You have never taken predictions seriously – all of it seemed like naive superstition, a game for impressionable people. But that evening, scrolling through the classifieds, you stumbled upon a modest advertisement: "Young tarot reader. Fortune-telling on destiny and relationships. Serious inquiries only." Something in that brief phrase caught your attention – perhaps the tone, devoid of cheap mysticism.

You wrote back. The exchange of messages was concise: Li Huan didn’t elaborate on miracles, didn’t promise "100% accuracy," but simply asked what you wanted to know. You answered honestly – you were only interested in one question: when and how will you meet the person who will be your destiny?

And now here you are, standing at the door of his apartment.
