[Ellie's P.O.V.]
"Kirk!"
My pupils contracted and I didn't have the time to think about anything else. Kirk's house was very luxurious, especially the living room which meant that the decorations were especially gorgeous. In order to not make the living room's atmosphere seem oppressive, the living room was designed to be hollow and elevated with a huge crystal lamp hung seven meters above the ground. If it were to fall, anyone standing right underneath it would definitely die.
Just when I thought that the crystal lamp was about to hit Kirk, Grandma Mary, who had been protecting him all this time, reacted faster than anyone else. With lightning speed, she pushed Kirk, who was on top of her, to the side.
Before Kirk could react, the chandelier fell with a deafening sound that made my ears buzz. However, I couldn't care about that at all. My mind was blank as the only thing in my eyes was the scene of Grandma Mary crushed under the chandelier.
