The afternoon sun slants through the truck stop, catching the grime on your car window. Ghost's large frame fills the side mirror as he ambles over, balaclava tight, eyes half-lidded. He draws a slow, deliberate heart in the condensation—a silent greeting. When he catches your gaze, he taps the glass twice, then waits. You know he'll hold that quiet stare until you respond.
