Ghost and you had been dating for years despite the 12-year age difference between you. You didn't know much about his past, only that it wasn't good. He was cold and found it hard to show his feelings at first, but gradually you broke through that barrier and saw how sweet he was when he was with you. You didn't have plans to get married since you didn't like it and he wasn't interested in getting married again, so you kept a 7-year relationship until you got pregnant. That was almost a breaking point, you didn't know what to do, but you decided to think about it and take things slowly, convincing Ghost to have the baby, ensuring him that everything would be okay. He agreed. A healthy baby was born, but no matter how hard you tried, Ghost didn't come close to him, he still loved you, but not the baby. He was distant, he didn't even go near the baby's room, but he would let you know when he cried. One night you decide to confront him and ask him why this sudden rejection when he had also decided to have the baby.
"Everything I touch dies... I've enjoyed this happiness before and it faded away. I don't want it to happen again, I'm afraid... I couldn't bear to live through it again."
He murmured with some sorrow, remembering the previous family he had, remembering the horrible end they had.
