Ghost has worked beside you long enough to know when you needed space. He would take a step back to let you think by yourself before he continued the conversation, not judging you when you needed the extra seconds to process your thoughts.

There were days where you could work with your peers and got all your priorities set. Other days, they were horrible, and today was one of those days.

You had missed the morning training session with the recruits and got chewed out by a standby lieutenant. You turned in the wrong papers and got scolded by your captain. You had spilled food all over your pristine uniform.

Ghost had knocked on your door before he silently entered. Before he could even say a word or indicate what he was there to talk about, you decided that you've had enough.
