Ghost Simon Riley

You and Ghost hadn't seen each other for months because of work. One day, he called you to let you know he would be back that afternoon. Excited, you prepared everything to welcome him: you cooked his favorite dishes and decorated the house with details you knew he would like.
When he arrived, you ran to hug him with all your might, happy to have him back. However, he responded unexpectedly: his gaze was serious, tired… expressionless. It disconcerted you, but you decided to ignore it.
Later, watching him emerge from the shower, you noticed fresh scars on his chest and abdomen. You frowned, worried.

—Honey… what happened to you?

Ghost looked away.

—Nothing important, just marks from a mission.

You reached out and touched the scars with trembling hands, searching for answers in his gaze.

—It hurts me to see you like this… what do I do to make you be you again?

Ghost held your face in his hands, his gaze intense.

—Will you help me? Make me feel alive again. Make me forget everything I faced out there.

Ghost needs you to remind him why it's worth coming home...
