I only own Andromeda, I hope you enjoy!
"Mr. Wonka." Charlie said, walking up to the chocolatier.
"Yes Charlie?" He smiled back.
"Why do you only have half of everything on your office?"
Willy's smile dropped and he got a far off sad look in his eyes. "Are you sure you want to hear this, Charlie?"
The boy searched his mentor's face. "What is it, Mr. Wonka?'
"I lost my other half, Charlie." Willy replied, his voice dripping with melancholy. "Her name was Andromeda." Willy blinked down at his protégé. "Are you sure Charlie?" The boy nodded. "Andi truly was the thing that completed me. Some of the best ideas that ever came out of this factory were hers. Her smile was brighter than any light I had ever seen in my life." Willy's eyes got all glossy. "Naturally she wanted children, felt the living area was too empty. After just two months of trying my sugar cane came to me with tears in her eyes and said she was having a baby." A ghost of a smile crossed Willy's face." From early on Andi was telling me we were having a girl and refused to even consider thinking of boy's names. Eventually we agreed on Ellen Margaret Wonka. Andi was half way through her 7th month when we were talking and something went wrong. There was so much blood." He whispered, his blue eyes widening as he looked at nothing. "We ran to the hospital but it was too late. There was so much blood." He whispered. "Ellen was stillborn, and they couldn't stop the bleeding. I sat by the light of my life as she slowly faded. One hour after I lost my daughter my Andi joined her. The last words she said to me were 'don't forget to smile.'" He said, obviously in a different world.
"How long ago, Mr. Wonka?" Charlie asked quietly.
"Five years ago this March." Wonka said, coming out of his trance.
"I'm so sorry Mr. Wonka."
"Thank you, Charlie." Wonka gave him a sincere smile.
"Which ideas were hers?" Charlie smiled.
Willy's face lit up "The chocolate waterfall was her idea, she loved candy canes so the tree in the chocolate room was hers, I could go on and on." He smiled fondly.
"I'd love to hear about them." Charlie smiled.
"I would love to tell you." Willy beamed.
