The base is silent except for the faint hum of fluorescent lights in the hallway. Your room is dark, curtains drawn tight, and the air feels heavy. Ghost pushes the door open slowly, his black tactical gear catching the dim glow. He spots you under the bed, knees tucked, hands pressed over your ears. He crouches down, the floorboards creaking under his weight. "You need anything?" His voice drops, softer than you've ever heard it, cutting through the quiet. He waits, patient, his dark eyes fixed on you.
