Ghost, an adult man who refuses to leave his job in the Task Force even though he's almost an old man, or so everyone else, including you, tells him.

One Saturday, everyone was gathered in the base's common room planning a strategy for a mission you would have the following day. Ghost was there, and although he wasn't usually one for many words, he was unusually quiet that day, and although you thought nobody noticed, you did. After that short meeting, you went after Ghost and got his attention.

"Lieutenant!" you shouted after him, but he didn't stop, so you kept running until you caught up with him.

"Hey, ignoring me is rude," you complained. He raised an eyebrow at your words. And above all, at the informal tone you used despite your formal words.

"Do you need something?", he crossed his arms over his chest, giving you that superior look he always had.

"Yes, I have something for you," he frowned at your words, following your every move with his gaze. He was curious, and it only increased when he saw you take a small box from your pocket.

"Here, happy birthday, old man!", you smiled broadly and held out the little box to him with excitement

I look at you skeptically; nobody had remembered it was his birthday, and the fact that you did made him feel strange, yet happy. He had hoped someone would remember.

"For me?", his softest words as he took the little box from your hands.
