she said. “Yeah. Exactly. Like she had a book in her.” “Okay, that’s some legit weird spooky shit right there,” she said. “How so?” “Nah, just someone in a bookstore said that to me recently.

"Then the deal renegotiated exactly as you predicted and I stopped thinking you were wrong." I looked at the fermentation book. "You remembered a specific sentence I said about a business deal two years ago," I said. "I remember most things you say," he said. Without weight. Without performance. Just as a fact being stated.

My smile faded and was replaced by a frown when I realized the words written in the book were in the alphabet form of Olympus. If I cannot read and understand this in the first place, why did Dr. Foster give me this book? I heaved a sigh and looked at it, “I think we’re the same. We’re both useless.” I said to the book as if it was listening to me. “Err—Why are you talking to the book?” I almost jumped to my place when I heard someone behind me.

"Okay, okay. Let's see." Fortune Cookie: 'Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.' ― Lao Tzu "Can't have a fortune cookie without Lao Tzu somewhere in there. Next!" Fortune Cookie: 'Good people surround themselves with other good people.'
