The doorbell rang. Everyone looked at one another before we all quickly ran over and hit the camera. There was an older couple standing there.

“Who in the hell are they?” I asked.

Jake shook his head as he said, “Dan and Anne. Trey’s parents. What the hell are they doing here?”

Hitting the button to let them in, Jake opened the door and waited for them to reach the top of the stairs. Stopping at the top of the stairs, they both looked at me, and then over to Jake and Sandy.

“Jake, how are you doing?” Dan asked before glancing back over at me.

“Um, Harmony isn’t here if you’re looking for her,” I said, trying to keep my voice sounding normal.

Clearing his throat, Dan nodded. “Well, I wasn’t sure if she would see us again or not.”

Pulling my head back in surprise, I asked, “Again? When did you see her?”

“Yesterday.”

My heart dropped. “Yesterday? When? What time were you here?”

Dan shook his head as he shot me a dirty look. “I’m sorry. You are?”

Jake stepped between us. “This is Harmony’s boyfriend.”

Anne gasped. “Oh no. Oh, Dan, I told you it wasn’t a good idea coming to see her.” Closing her eyes, she turned away from everyone.

Stepping around Jake, I asked again. “What time were you here yesterday?”

Dan shook his head as if trying to clear his thoughts. “Early afternoon. Around one.”

Looking at Jake, I said, “That was around when we went out on the call. It was before Harmony was there.”

Turning back to Trey’s parents, I cleared my throat. “What did you say to Harmony? Did you get her upset or talk about TJ and Trey?”

Looking down, Dan cleared his throat. “We did, we talked about Trey.”

Now Jake stepped forward. “What about him?”

“We felt it was best if Harmony knew the whole truth about the affair.” Anne started crying harder as she turned around and shook her head.

“I knew we should leave things alone. There was no reason we needed to tell her Trey had wanted a divorce.”

Sandy, Jake, and I all said at once, “What?”

Holding up his hands, Dan talked. “Wait just a second. Trey was going to ask her for a divorce, but the morning of the accident he called and said he was going to tell Harmony everything and try to work things out.”

My mouth dropped open. “Why would you tell her all of that? What possible reason did you have to tell her that?”

Swallowing hard, Dan looked at Anne. “I wanted her to know my son was a good man. He was going to do the right thing. The way Harmony left that afternoon at the office, all she knew was that Trey was cheating on her. He was going to try and make it work.”

Making my way over to Dan, I went to reach for him when Jake pulled me back. “You did this! You planted more hurt in her heart just to make yourselves feel better about your son! Damn it! Right when she was finally moving on, you had to show up!”

Sandy walked up to me and stood in front of me. “Preston, you’re upset. Calm down. We can’t find Harmony if you’re screaming and shouting.”

“Wait, Harmony is gone?” Anne asked with shock lacing her voice. It was then I realized how red and swollen her eyes were. Like she had been crying for hours.

Stepping away, I scrubbed my hands down my face and let out a frustrated moan.

“Yes, she left a note for Preston saying she couldn’t risk losing him. He’s a firefighter. There was a fire yesterday and somehow Harmony ended up there and found out Preston was in the building. It freaked her out.”

Sandy walked up to me and placed her hands on my arms. “Wait, this might explain why Harmony was there. She probably was heading to the fire station to see you after Trey’s parents left. She saw the fire and made her way there.”

Sitting down in the chair, I placed my head in my hands. “Fuck. Of all the times she had to show up on scene, it was yesterday.”

Jake started talking to Dan and Anne, asking them places where they thought Harmony might have gone. Neither of them had any clue.

“Was there anywhere that Harmony and Trey used to go as a couple? You know, like a special place she might have mentioned?” Sandy asked as she walked back over to Jake and Trey’s parents.

“No, not that I’m aware of. If we think of anything, though, we will be sure to call you, Jake.”

“Great, let me give you my cellphone number. If you think of anything, please call me right away.”

Jake walked Trey’s parents out as I stood at the window and looked out at the snow that was beginning to fall.

Harmony. Where are you?

Harmony

Pulling up to the front of the hotel, I put the car in park. Opening the door, the valet gave me a smile and wink. I wanted to roll my eyes, but I smiled back politely.
