Pandora's Sky

Chapter 17: Exploration of the Forgotten

            It is because we are humans that’s why we feel pain and that pain leads us to understanding one another

“I am Gilleon Rhyd; Leon’s grandfather. A hitman”

His words collide in my thoughts, they are neither accepting nor rejecting what he have said earlier but before I came up with an answer. The old man in my front that proclaims his self to be Leon’s relatives is now pointing gun at me. The gun is very white like diamond and has a rose like figure in its side, as it look it is quite expensive but anyways.. again… why does my life is always near at death’s door. Yesterday and now today, I am almost killed in the hands of the same person too. Yet yesterday is a prank but before that why did he bring me here and his question

If you really love Leon; show me you’re resolve

What does he mean by that? Does he wanted me to take that gun away from him and shoot him instead, or rather I should run. What should I do? Leon..

“Ojou-san. What is your answer”  he ready the gun and reload some bullet. Now this is real. With this given distance I will die. What should I answer? For me to survive like I said I can’t die yet we still have a date

“Yes sir, I love Leon and we have a date today that’s why I will not die today or tomorrow”  I shouted with pride and brave heart.

This is my real feelings

Silence… an awkward silence. It looks like he is not convinced his eyes are still lifeless and serious does it really not counted. Whatever I said to him that is the extent moreover the summary of my thoughts. Ahh… now that I said it and recalled it I am very embarrassed, yet I can’t show any weakness to him. Not to him I can’t let my guard down.

He is a hitman; a person who can take someone’s life in instant. I can’t cry or blush. I need to be serious or else. I will really die. … though he is related to Leon. It seems I can’t trust him.. I gulp and look at him and then…..

….

“…”

“___”

He smile

“____” I force my smile back then

“PFFT…A HAHAHAHAHA” he suddenly burst laughing while holding the gun. Is he crazy? … or does he became crazy today. Did I sound crazy?

I frown at him and one of my eyebrows raise. I am pissed off. I really wanted to spank him and stop his laughing now.

“WHAHAHHAHA” he continued to life.

“Ahaha” and suddenly I also laughed

“Whahah”

“Ahahha|”

Whew… that was good. I wonder why did I laugh too

“you’re a strange girl” he commented and sit on the blue cushion and have a smoke

“Uhmm sir, are you really Leon’s grandfather?” I asked, who knows it can be a scam. Or a prank and I have enough of pranks today. This is the last prank I want for today

“Yes… are we not alike”

“No… the face as well as the eyes they are all the same with him” … except for laugh

“except for my hair, though. It has the color of the clear blue sky. But right now, it is shed in white as clouds” he stated and stand up. He look at me and get a big attaché case then put it in my front
