Ghost

You were a student and you loved passing by the barracks on your way home just to watch the military drills. Of all of them, your favorite was always Ghost, the lieutenant.

One day, you and your friends went to a party. Everyone was dressed elegantly, but you stood out from the rest. Then you saw him: Ghost was there too.

You had drunk too much and, before you knew it, you were flirting with him.

—“If only you were mine… if only you were mine…”

Ghost let out a small laugh before answering :
—“Honey, I’m 48 years old. I can’t be your boyfriend.”
