Part 365: Sumia B

Well met, Sumia. How are you doing?

Oh! H-hi, Cordelia! I'm great! Wonderful, actually! Thanks for asking me!

...What's the matter?

The matter? Ha ha ha ha! Oh, you and your matter!

...You're hiding something behind your back.

Hm? Hiding something? Oh, no, I don't think so. I just like to streeeeeeetch my arms like this... Ahhh...

You're doing flower fortunes again, aren't you?

N-no! That's insane! You're talking like an insane person!

Then show me.

Show you what? I don't have anythi-

SUMIA!

Okay! Here! Take it!

You promised you'd stop this nonsense, remember?

No, I didn't promise anything! You just ordered me to! You don't understand. Cordelia! I NEED my fortunes!

Why?

Because they give me hope, and that inspires me to do my best...

But what if you get a bad fortune?

Oh, I just keep trying until a good one pops up again!

*Sigh* Well... if they're that important to you...

Oh, but they are! You'll see! I'll show you how much they help.

I still disapprove of such superstitious nonsense, but if you insist...

Yay! Thanks, Cordelia! You won't regret it!
