A Tarot Card's

Sometimes We Get Sick, Just To Help Others

--------------------

I woke up suddenly when someone tapped my shoulder.

"Brother Ejh. How long have you been waiting for sleeping here!"

Zahid exclaimed while sitting next to me.

Wait...

Well, I'm sitting in this chair.

I have not answered what was asked by Zahid. I stayed still and held my head with both hands.

Not me, lying on the floor next to the banyan tree huh. How come I'm here all of a sudden.

Hmmm, I hold my head while remembering what happened before to me.

"Hey? Are you okay?"

Asked Zahid Worried.

"Hmm, I'm a little dizzy,!"

A collection of random memories ran through my head. And one thing I remember right now, I was trying to open the chain.

What chain...

A chain tied to a banyan tree and the legs of a female figure.

At that moment I immediately stood up and immediately approached the banyan tree.

I saw a woman standing under the tree.

He looked at me and was silent.

"Help me, I beg you!"

"FUCK!"

Without thinking I immediately turned around and left the place.

I heard footsteps chasing me.

"Hey, wait for me, why am I staying!"

Oh yeah, I just realized that Zahid was there. I stopped and smiled at him.

"Brother Ejh why, why did you suddenly say that?"

Walking next to me while looking deeply at me

"Hmmm, it's normal for someone to bother you earlier!"

I explained briefly.

"Ohhh!"

Bughhh

"Be careful, kid!"

I was silent when there were gentlemen who I just accidentally hit his shoulder, said something to me.

I stopped in my tracks and, I thought for a moment.

I think I've met these people before, but where?

"Why?"

Ah yes, it was the gentlemen who asked me before the unclear incident earlier.

I immediately turned around and called him.

"Sir.. wait..?"

But where is he?

Even though I just hit the shoulder with the person.

Weird.

And he also said some strange things.

"Be careful, kid!"

...

"Come on Hid!"

I asked Zahid to continue walking towards our hangout.

Along the way, I kept thinking about what just happened.

Is that real?

But it's really real I feel.

Or was that DEJAVU?

is it?

I sat biting my thumb, a habit when I was confused with a question hanging in my head.

"Brother Ejh, eat the grilled meatball first!"

"Hmmm ok"

Zahid handed me a skewer of grilled meatballs.

"hey, after this, my nephew has come.!"

"Okay"

My answer is short.

Shortly after Zahid and I ate grilled meatballs, the person he mentioned came.

Two people to be exact.

I saw the two of them coming over.

"Hey Brother, this is the person that I ever told you!"

Zahid said to the two people who just came while pointing at me.

"Ahh okay, nice to meet you!"

Smiling and shaking my hand.

"Nice to meet you too!"

"Hey!"

Smile while shaking my hand.

Hmmm

Two people just shook hands with me, and two people with different personalities. Very different.

I don't know his name, because he didn't introduce his name.

Anyway, the first acquaintance, he is an honest and optimistic person and of course confident.

Different again from the second, he lacks confidence, there is something he is hiding from him and he is having a problem with his family.

Hmmm. Ok.

So here I will not mention names, but I will mention the A and B. Right when I shook hands with both of them.

"Brother, let's play tarot cards!?"

Zahid immediately shouted, when the four of us were already sitting and enjoying our grilled meatballs.

"What are tarot cards?"

said the A to ask Zahid.

"Ah, that's a divination card, bro, this is my brother can use the tarot card to predict people!"

While nudging me

"Is that true?"

The B replied while giving an expression of disbelief.

"Let's play, so that my brother knows the prediction!"

"Okay"

So actually I don't have to use tarot cards to predict someone. But my trauma is that when I read them using my senses, what I will mention sometimes I can't control.

Because what comes out of my mouth is not clear whether it's the past, present, or even future.

What traumatized me was that an incident had occurred before.

When a child asks for fortune-telling, I predict him using my senses. And so I talk a lot, and I talk about the future. All I say.

And as a result, what I predicted also actually happened according to the picture I had explained to him.

The bad thing is that when I predict people using my senses, I can't know and remember what I have said to them. Because when I predict someone, what I feel is not me who is controlling, but there is the other inside of me that controls it.

So from then on, I was very careful about fortune-telling. And I have now found the solution to my problem, namely tarot cards.

When I do fortune telling using tarot cards, everything I talk about is controlled and organized. Since then I have always carried my tarot cards everywhere.

(I will make a special part that explains my divination and tarot cards)

I took out a red purse with tarot cards inside. This card is always there wherever I go and always in my bag.

"Ok, want to join everyone?"

I offer while shuffling the cards.

Tarot cards are very different from other cards, they are bigger and longer. So if you are not an expert, shuffling the tarot cards will be difficult.

And when I offered everyone to come along, no one refused. Hehehe

Especially Zahid, if Zahid would have joined. He was the only child I taught how to fortune-telling using tarot cards.

So first I asked all of them to place their hands on the cards I was holding, so they overlapped each other.

The second they did not ask to close their eyes each.

And at the same time, I mentioned the keyword.

"This is a Tarot Card, remember this is just a card. So whatever comes out later from this card. Believe it or not, it's up to you, because it depends on each other's beliefs. And no one should lie when we play tarot cards. Remember it's just a card."

After I read the key.

I asked them to let go of their hands one by one.

And I started with Zahid.

For each person will get three cards which will be chosen by themselves and opened by me. Because here my role is only as a card reader, aka translator of what cards and pictures will come out later.

Because not everyone can interpret and read the meaning of this tarot card.

It's all been divided, and everyone has got their cards.

Starting from Zahid, First and Second.

The meaning of the cards from Zahid and first are all good, the point is to keep the spirit to work hard to get what you want.

Unlike the Second. He got a strange card, in essence, the meaning is.

He must be able to control himself because a big threat can come if he is not prepared to start from this second. And a hidden grudge will be revealed in a moment.

Hmmm, it's quite scary to read it. But I explained to him the normal version. Not with high language and difficult to understand.

After I read it, they were mostly silent and thinking.

"How do you know this kid when it's just a card. Does he have black magic?"

I heard that was the expression of The B's heart. I just pretended to look normal so he wouldn't feel weird about me either.

"How can that be, how come it's all true. Even though you only use a card, but everything is caught, it's funny"

And this is the heart of the A. He is more relaxed and doesn't think too much about weird things.

I'm just silent to hear their hearts, yes I behave normally is better than acting unclearly.

There was a moment of silence between the four of us.

"How long did you study like that?"

B Ask.

"Ah, not just four days."

I answered casually

"Those cards all have different meanings?"

said the A.

"Yes, there are 78 cards with all different meanings!"

"Wow, that's crazy, bro! Teach me sometime"

Add the B.

I just smiled and nodded my head.

"Brother let's go home, it's already 00.15 am"

Said Zahid.

Without saying much, the four of us went home.

On the way, I felt something strange...
