Miracle

…we were just about to turn to Bury Walk that evening, when my gaze grazed a flat rear of a mighty double-decker, insisting on a MIRACLE.

-Leo, look a miracle!

-Where?! – blue eyes touched mine momentarily, flying away in a frantic search of the mentioned.

-Right there, on a bus.

 -Aargh, Slavka. That’s just a word.

-Miracle’s definitely not just a word. Have you ever seen a true miracle?

-No. Never.

I began to point enthusiastically towards my face, neck, torso, legs, presenting myself in all my beauty. Leo’s unimpressed face was simply not having it.

-What?🙄

-Here,- my eyes began to project an exaggerated fake offence. Leo giggled.

-What??

-Me! I’m the miracle!

-How?

-D’you remember my proper name? So some people call me also Mira, cool? And “mira cool” is just that weeny bit longer version of miracle, I rest my case.

Leo’s giant blue eyes were looking at me in disbelief, his face slowly melting into a deafening waterfall of a pure laughter that of children, and eye knew my words found the home…

The word miracle kept stalking me that week, till a tarot reader on YT finally dared to point out my exact point- You are a miracle!

 

The story could stop there.

And yet life, being life, decided to take a different approach.

Three days ago I got introduced to a beautiful woman called Selma. When I pointed out her resemblance to her brother, she asked whether I knew Farouk. The following day I met Farouk himself, being a true gentleman like always, offering me an umbrella so my hair wouldn’t melt away. 

The next day I met someone, who knew Farouk, mentioning his name again and again.

And so taking an escalator down to depths of London Underground today, I was not surprised one bit when a man next to me exclaimed in Arabic- Fa Rooq!

The train arrived, and I finally set down, googling the meaning of that name. “The one who discerns truth from lies. Justice”

On the way home I listened to tarot for today- insisting the long blocked piece of information was finally finding its way to my life, being a form of justice…

That’s when I understood the tarot cards and their readers successfully finished their mission in my life❤️
