"Don't wait for me."
"Why not?" Her voice was demanding, the tears falling in rivers down her face.
"I won't be coming back."
"What?"
"I'm leaving Harmony! Why don't you understand? Why? Just tell me why!" He grabbed her arms and shook her violently.
"Why? James, why are you leaving?"
"I can't stand this any more! Ever since Memory died....ever since your sister killed herself you haven't been yourself, and I just can't take this any more. Jessyka even told me she's worried about you. Aren't you concerned that your own children are worried about you when you're supposed to be the responable adult?"
"I, I, I didn't fucking know! Nobody told me!"
"Well, whatever. I'm leaving. Jessyka's still in school and she'll only be spending holidays with you. Kaliy, Ciara, and Jesse will decide on their own if they want to come."
"No. Please James, don't go."
"Give me one reason."
"I still love you! That should be reason enough for you! Did our wedding vows mean nothing?"
"They meant something, when you weren't crazy."
As Harmony lay in her bed, she was suddenly awaken from her memoric dream by the sound of someone saying mom over and over. She sat up in bed and looked to her doorway. Kaliy was standing there.
"Kaliy-"
"Mom, you sounded like you were crying." Kaliy was giving her a pointed look, one which was easily read as "Don't lie to me."
"Kaliy, I'm fine. It was just a nightmare. Go back to sleep and we'll talk about this in the morning."
"I actually came because someone just came here. Says she's your sister."
A look of complete unknowing graced Harmony's face. All of her sisters were dead....right?
