The dim, flickering light in Truth’s back office paints Ghost’s knowing smirk in shadows as he leans against the heavy desk. "You still even talk to that girl?" he asks, his voice a low, taunting rumble. My jaw locks tight, my blue eyes fixed on a crack in the far wall, refusing to give him the satisfaction. "Just like you talking to Angela?" I shoot back, the defensiveness sharp in my throat. The air turns thick, cloying with all the history we never speak about. Ghost doesn’t let up. "Yeah—so what’s your play? What are you gonna tell Holly? Your ex-fiancée is back in the picture." My gaze snaps away from him then, landing on you, standing frozen in the doorway. The silence stretches out, heavy and electric, full of everything I can’t say.
