They stare at each other's eyes like it was the contest of not blinking. She turned back from him and started walking off. And her grandfather had a gun in his left hand and warns her again. She wasn't afraid of a gunshot. She had received multiple pains from war and from her own missions. She wasn't afraid of death, because every day she's wishing to die.
"Don't you dare, Andromeda! Even though I doted you, and I love you. I won't let you off so easily. I wanted you to marry Zachary no matter what." She strode back to her grandfather and pull the muzzle of the gun that was pointed to her and pressed the muzzle on her forehead.
"Go on. Pull the trigger." She demanded. She was fearless.
"Andromeda!" her mother squeal.
"Andy! Grandpa, please!" James was about to stride to them but Alexander is stubborn and didn't let him get closer. The pistol was his special gun. He loved his gun and he would kill her with it.
"Go ahead, Grandpa. I'm tired of living." Her voice shows her depression, loneliness, and pain. But she never shows up. But her grandfather saw how much she suffer by just looking into her eyes.
"You are not going to marry him?" He asked again.
"Better kill me then." Her voice didn't show tremble. Not a single of fear. She was determined to get herself killed.
Zachary is sweating and couldn't even move from his position. This was his fault after all. He strode to them and hold the Elder's arm to stop him.
"Then," Elder Mondragon pull the pistol and pointed the muzzle to his head. "Grandpa will just die then. I just wanted to give you something that would be for a lifetime."
"Please, grandfather." Zachary pleaded. "Stop this." He's getting anxious. Everyone is still stunned by what Elder Mondragon did. No one had managed to predict what was to happen.
"No." Grandpa shook his head. "I wanted my Granddaughter to marry you."
"Marriage is stupid!" Zachary told. Suddenly, hearing it from Zachary, Andromeda's chest has increased pain and she felt heavy now. She looked at her grandfather. She can't lose him too. She had lost someone once but not her grandfather at this moment. "If you both wanted to kill yourselves, then let's stop this stupid negotiation."
"It was indeed a stupid negotiation." She utterly looking directly to his face. But she had said to him clearly. He broke her heart and he has to pay.
Fiona couldn't help but run to her daughter and hugged her, covering her from Elder Mondragon. The Elder put his gun down. He didn't even put bullets inside and he wouldn't kill his favorite granddaughter. But sometimes he has to hurt her for her to stop being hardheaded.
"Andromeda, do as what your grandfather wishes. After I am dead, you can do whatever you want. Just at this time, sweetheart." A tear falls from her eyes but she still shows no emotions at all. She just stared at her grandfather who is pleading. "Grandfather loves you. But please, just this time."
