In the state archive of citizens' records:

"Hello, I'd like to find out something about my grandmother."

"Hi, sure, let's see. What's her name?"

"Grandma Lily."

"And? Last name?"

"Don't know. She's always been grandma Lily to me."

"Do you know her date of birth?"

"February 15. Or maybe 16."

"Year?"

"Have no idea."

"Is that your mom's mother?"

"Yes."

"Would she know her mom's information?"

"She would've. But she's dead."

Taking out a tarot deck, "This reading is to explore the energies surrounding grandma Lily..."

"Are you kidding me???"

"Please come back with your mother's birth certificate, at least."
