"Read your cards?"
The little girl's voice draws him out of his misery. The long auburn hair and white dress on her young body makes her look desperately out of place in this dingy and derelict bar.

She sits down anyway, putting her cards down on the table. Ianto decides he's too dejected to argue.
"Your question is about the future…"
He never asked any questions…
She pulls out two cards.
"It shows the Queen of Cups and The Chariot. It means your loneliness will end with love and affection." She smiles. "He'll be back for you soon."
