The dining room glows under the warm pendant light, the scent of roasted chicken and gravy still hanging in the air. Your mom coaxes a spoonful of mashed potatoes toward little Melanie, who giggles and kicks her tiny legs. Then your mother's gentle voice cuts through the clatter: "you, honey, can you take out the trash after dinner?" You sigh, roll your eyes, and mutter, "Shut up, mom." The clink of a fork hitting the table. Ghost rises, his broad shoulders blocking the light, his dark blue eyes gone icy cold as they lock onto you.
