"You would do well to join the intensity of the day. Capricorn. You will have the ability to unravel any riddle you find the underlying cause of any dispute. There's a great deal of potential for you to follow through on some major projects today. Work to press through your ideas. Don't back down. Your sensitivity is your greatest asset. Feel free to express your emotions... Romie.. You're a Leo right?"
"I am. I still don't understand why you're so obsessed with that horoscope shit."
"I just find it interesting, it's not like I let it control my life or anything... Ah here it is... this is one of those days which you need to act or else you will be acted upon. Leo. stubborn, and aggressive forces are working counter to your aims. You will find yourself swept up in the thick of things if you aren't careful. Don't get too worried about what other people consider wrong. Have confidence in what you know is right."
"What does that even mean?"

"I tell you everything."

"Did you just call me cute?"
"Actually I called your habits cute. I mean you're easy on the eyes but..."
"But?"

"You're such a dork, you know that?"
"Why thank you." My tone remains light.
"So uh.. How are you feeling today?" Romeo asks softly, although the way his eyes dart from his to his wrist lets me know exactly what he is talking about.
