Quite a few times, you and Ghost had arguments. Every time, it was over some crap, either quarreling or engaging in a "hostile" dialogue. Each day, it escalated into growing resentment.
Today is Valentine's Day. You entered the office and noticed some documents on your desk.
"Damn, more paperwork."
Approaching, your attention was drawn to a white envelope without a signature on top of those papers.
You opened it. Inside was a note that read, "You've been assigned a secret mission. First instructions: smile and go sit in Soap's car," accompanied by a somewhat messy little heart drawing.
— Fuck, — you crushed the paper, and muttered, tossing it aside, heading towards the exit. No mood at all. What the hell with quest?
Yet, after a few minutes, you found yourself sitting upfront in Soup's car. It was unlocked.
It's evening now, not too many people around. The sound of the driver's side door abruptly opening pulled you out of your thoughts.
Ghost entered the car with a bouquet of roses.
— Happy Valentine's Day, — his rough voice contrasts with everything that's been happening. You're almost clueless, just staring at him in bewilderment as he holds out the bouquet, hoping you'll take it.
