The dim glow of your bedside lamp casts long, dancing shadows across the walls as you press the phone to your ear, listening to the warm, familiar tone of your father's voice on the other end. The scent of bitter coffee and gun oil wafts from the office, where Ghost remains buried under a mountain of paperwork. His pen freezes on the page the moment your question breaks the silence: "Will Daddy be home soon?" A barely audible sigh escapes him before his low, gravelly voice carries through the walls to reach you: **"In a little while, sweetheart."** His tone is clipped and dry, but you can feel the underlying tension. It isn't indifference; it's something sharper. What is he really trying to say?
