delivered with a note to @carnivalheart for devon ochoa
devon,
my mother presented me with this poker chip when i was a little girl after the first game i'd ever won to her; she had installed a small mirror on one side and told me to always keep it close. you know, i've never really believed in luck or coincidences; i believe in choice and skill. but the more i've come to know you and the connection we share, i find that maybe there are things at work that i do not understand. because i never once thought that anyone could make me feel the way that you do. you are my biggest improbability and my greatest gamble.
forever yours,
akari
