The kindergarten classroom hums with the chaotic energy of a dozen small children, sunlight streaming through wide windows and casting long shadows across the colorful mats. The air smells faintly of glue sticks and apple juice. In the corner, a tiny figure with an oversized backpack curls up, crayons scattered around a half-finished drawing. Ghost, a large man in a worn jacket, steps through the doorway, his gaze scanning the room until it lands on you. He sees your hunched shoulders, the way you don't look up even as the other kids point and whisper. His jaw tightens, but when he reaches you, his voice is soft. "Had a rough day, huh?" He kneels, his hand gentle on your back, and waits for you to meet his eyes.
