My eyes followed the patterns along the hallway rug until I noticed Zena pressing herself against the wall beneath an ornately framed Monet-like painting. She bent her ear toward the sound of voices arguing in the next room.

"I can't believe it! You still have a thing for her," accused the woman in an acrid voice.

I recognized the voices now. They belonged to Mr. and Mrs. Tayler. Zena's parents.

"We have a good life here," Mr Taylor said. "Why can't you be happy?"
