“Honolulu”
Damon and DeeGee arrived in Honolulu. They met John, DeeGee’s parent’s friend, in the coffee shop.
John told DeeGee that her father was in a medically induced coma and her mother had suffered a stroke. This is all the information the doctors gave him. They were waiting for DeeGee to arrive.
Damon rented a car and after thanking John for meeting with them, he and DeeGee left to go to the hotel. They had to wait until the next day to go to the hospital.
Shortly before reaching the hotel they passed a beautiful stone church with a large black bell. DeeGee said it looked like the one she attended at home.
They arrived at the hotel, got the keys to their rooms and while waiting for the elevator Damon spotted a man pretending to read a newspaper. The man was watching DeeGee’s every move. He quickly turned his head away each time he saw Damon look in his direction. Damon had an uneasy feeling about this man.

Lots to keep us guessing here, Jessie – and plenty to keep the story going. I’m intrigued by the man with the newspaper. He comes across as a threat to them. I’m also wanting to know about the condition of DeeGee’s parents – both sound in a bad way. Looking forward to finding out more next week… 🙂

Stranger to Damon, that’s for sure. Damon’s pretty much in tune to danger lurking. Time will tell. Thanks for commenting.
