I keep rereading my fortune reading until a reply comes

This is for anyone who keeps opening their fortune reading again and again while waiting for a reply.

Scenes

  • I open my fortune reading again while waiting for a reply — It’s ten at night. The message I sent is still there, but I keep reading my fortune again. I’m checking today’s meaning before the reply.
  • I want to find the reason for the late reply in my fortune — I still don’t know why they haven’t replied, but the line saying today’s luck is blocked fills the empty space first. The waiting grows longer.
  • I turn the pages again instead of refreshing — A little after ten in the kitchen, I put down my phone, then pick it up again three minutes later. There’s still no reply, and I read the same line in my fortune again.
  • My fortune reading can’t decide when they’ll reply — A fortune reading describes the flow of a year; it doesn’t tell you how the other person feels now or when their reply will come. When you fill the blank with fortune, the waiting only grows.
  • Write down the fact that you’re waiting separately from what your fortune says — On paper, write “There’s still no reply” and “Today’s luck is blocked” separately. When you separate them, the facts you can check now come into view first.
  • My day doesn’t stop while I wait for a reply — Today’s reading can’t speak for the waiting. Next time you open the book, first notice whether you looked for the reply or the fortune.
