Nico's movement draws the aim of her gun, though looking at his face down the narrow barrel of the metallic thing, Quynh realizes that she has no desire nor need of drawing death forth tonight. Not right now. There has been enough death between the three of them, and so her gun falls away, though whether it had ever been a threat, she is unsure.

Her eyes scan the roof behind them, the ones next to them and across the street. There is no An, and the absence draws another spike into her heart.
