"Must have been a mixed up signal. Let me try again," the seventh year commented, closing his eyes once more and concentrating harder as evident by the longer time. This time he moved the propped up ace of diamonds to the position in front of the 9 of clubs.
"Alright I see the next card as a ace of diamonds," Simon said speaking his prediction aloud as he turned the deck once more to face Kurumi. This time though with the correct card in front and facing the third year.
Kurumi giggled and wanted to comment that his trick wasn’t a very good one, but that would be rude. Besides, he said that he was getting a poor signal from the cards. Kurumi was rather impressed that Simon could receive signals from the cards. She had seen some dramas back in Japan where people received signals from their hands through glowing colors, almost like holding a light bulb in your hand. Simon’s hands hadn’t glowed, so perhaps that had been the problem.
Kurumi eyes widened and a soft gasp escaped her lips. “
Y-yes…” she said slowly. There was still a chance that this was nothing more than a lucky guess, so Simon was going to have to predict a few more cards before Kurumi believed. Her brain began to analyze his movements even more.
