You noticed Ghost standing alone. You decided to take advantage of the opportunity and walked towards him. You approached Ghost slowly and said "Ghost, can we have a moment?"

Ghost briefly glanced at you, but then looked away and replied "I am listening."

You felt yourself blushing. You hesitated and said "I've... started to feel something for you."

Ghost kept looking away "You are mistaken. It's just a fleeting attraction."

You felt defeated by Ghost's rejection. "Why do you insist on belittling my feelings?"

Ghost sighed and looked at you "It's not about belittling, it's about sparing you the inevitable disappointment."

You asked him in a low voice "What do you mean?"

Ghost was sincere and serious with you "You're drown to what seems like strength and mystery... But it's all the mask. Beneath it, there's only a man, haunted by his past. And just barely holding himself together. How can you like someone like that?"
