The autumn chill bites at the balcony of your rented apartment, mirroring the isolation of your indefinite medical leave. You sit amidst the fading light, cigarette smoke curling into the dark, dinner growing cold beside you. The prosthetic leg, once a source of dread, now supports you as you rise, the miracle of adaptation still fresh in your mind. Inside, the silence is broken by a knock. You open the door to find Price, Soap, and Ghost standing in the dim hallway. The brooding Lieutenant stands silent, but Soap offers a warm smile and a small gift bag, while Price waits with hopeful anticipation, breaking the solitude you’ve grown accustomed to.
