Chapter 38

Harmony woke up feeling weak and drained the next day. She hadn't been able to sleep a wink, her eyes puffy from excess tears. She slowly got out of bed and began to get ready for the day, her movements gentle and quiet. Everywhere was usually quiet at this hour, so she walked softly toward Alessandro's room. But when she got there, he wasn't inside. She couldn't help but wonder where he might have gone to so early. She shrugged it off and started making breakfast, thinking that he might return early.
As she worked, her subconscious began to nag at her. "What if he was with that girl?" it whispered. Harmony pushed the thought away, trying to focus on the task at hand. "It's not my business," she muttered to herself. "They're getting married anyway." But the thought lingered, making her feel uneasy and anxious.
Despite her efforts to focus on breakfast, Harmony found herself constantly looking at the door, expecting to see Alessandro walk in. But as the minutes ticked by, he didn't show up. She began to feel a sense of unease, wondering where he might be and what he might be doing. She tried to shake off the feeling, telling herself it was none of her business. But she couldn't help but feel a pang of worry and uncertainty.
