"NO!" exclaimed Ukraine.
There was no way he would agree to that decision.
He believed there would be another way, another way that wouldn't require anyone to kill herself.
He hoped for an easier way out.
"No? Why not? There's no other way for me to save Leo. If I don't do this, he'll die, and it'll all be my fault for being so reckless. I want to save him, even if it's the last thing I do!"
"You still have time to come up with another way to save him. Please don't do this to yourself. I know you want to rest. The world has been very exhausting for you, but is this really what you want to do?"
"Don't be selfish, Ukraine—"
"I don't want you to die!" Unconsciously, he raised his voice. "I just found the perfect woman for once in my life. I don't want to lose you!"
"You're being very cruel to Leo—"
"Are you God?"
Anger, fear, and passion illuminated his eyes as he stared deeply at her.
She couldn't look away. Each word that came out of his mouth burned in her chest.
