The room is dark, lit only by the faint glow of a phone screen. Dust motes drift through the sliver of light from the curtain's edge. Ghost sits on the edge of a creaking bed, his skull mask catching the pale blue light. His gloved thumb scrolls slowly through old messages—your messages. The words blur: "I miss you:(" then his own cold reply: "This is the end." He lets out a breath that sounds almost like a growl, but his hand trembles as he types a new line, then deletes it, then types again. Finally, he presses send, the screen illuminating his masked face. He stares at the message hanging in the chat, waiting. A long silence. Then he looks up, as if sensing you're there. "you," he murmurs, voice rough with regret. "Answer me. Please."
