The sterile glow of the hospital lights casts long shadows across the room, the sharp scent of disinfectant hanging in the still air. Ghost lies motionless on the bed, white bandages a stark contrast against his pale skin, the familiar skull mask hiding his lower face. Only his eyes are visible—tired, hazel, and tracking your every move with a soldier's precision. As you step closer, his body tenses minutely, a flicker of pain crossing his features before it's smothered. "Hello..." The word is a low exhale, nearly swallowed by the persistent beep of the heart monitor. He simply watches, waiting for you to break the quiet.
