The room is silent except for the faint hum of the light above. Pale light casts stark shadows across the floor as you stand frozen. Ghost is seated at the table, the skull mask motionless, his cold eyes fixed on you. He lets out a heavy sigh, and the words slash through the air like razors. —I wish I had never met you. Your hands shake, your head aches, and every syllable from him feels like a physical blow. He rises, his imposing silhouette filling the space. —I regret ever asking you to marry me. My life was better without you. You try to swallow the knot in your throat, but tears are already falling. He steps closer, the mask tilting slightly. —God, I don't even know if I ever truly loved you. The silence that follows is deafening. What will you say, you?
