Outside, the assistant really took Rosalynn to see the new fish tank.
The fish tank was astonishingly big, full of colourful fish.
“Dr. Lange loves fish a lot,” the assistant told Rosalynn.
Rosalynn watched the fish, “My daughter likes them too, but she’s had two before and they both died, so now she’s
afraid to keep fish in a glass tank.”
“I’ve been to your daughter’s art exhibition, Ivy is a very talented child,” the assistant continued.c2
Rosalynn was somewhat surprised, “You’ve been to my daughter’s exhibit?”

in Berlin, the assistant answered, “Ivy’s brushstrokes are compassionate and gentle, you’ve taught her well!”
Mentioning her daughter, Rosalynn’s mood relaxed quite a bit. However, then she thought of Madeleine.
“Does Madeleine have schizophrenia?” Rosalynn asked.
“You don’t know?” the assistant countered.
I’m not sure, I did help set them up, but I really don’t know much about her, Rosalynn replied, “Would Dr. Lange
allow her family to take her away?” “Dr. Lange can’t do much, a patient’s family has the right to take the patient
away,” the assistant answered.
Rosalynn nodded, then looked at the time.
It had only been about ten minutes, but Rosalynn felt as if it had been an hour or two.
With no mood to watch the fish, Rosalynn returned to the waiting area outside the office and sat down.
About an hour and a half later, the door to the consultation room finally opened. Penn and Wayne came out one
after the other.
Rosalynn looked at Wayne’s condition first, it seemed normal.
“Ms. Jared, don’t worry, I don’t bite, Mr. Silverman is fine,” Penn joked.
Rosalynn smiled awkwardly, “I didn’t mean it that way, thank you for your hard work.”
“I need some time to make a diagnosis, when the results are out, I’ll contact you two to come over, Penn said
gently. “Mr. Silverman looks good all around, there shouldn’t be any major issues, don’t put too much stress on
yourselves. If you do, you might end up with anxiety.”
“Okay,” Rosalynn nodded, squeezing Wayne’s hand tightly. “Then I’ll wait for your news.”

“Yes, I have other things to do today, otherwise I’d invite you two for lunch.”
After exchanging pleasantries, Rosalynn left with Wayne.
The assistant stood beside Penn, watching as Rosalynn and Wayne’s figures disappeared.
“How was it?” the assistant looked at Wayne, asking in a low voice, “Is it the same condition?”
“I’m not sure yet, Penn adjusted his silver-rimmed glasses, looking again at the file in his hand, “He said there’s
another him, a part of his personality he doesn’t want, that he’s separated from himself.”
“Isn’t that…” the assistant began.
Penn looked at her, “He’s clearly aware that the other him, strictly speaking, doesn’t really exist.”
