Two Minds
“Good afternoon Mr. Barkim”, a man says in what seems to be a lab coat. Now it’s your turn Theo. “Good afternoon Dr. [______]”. Theo, what did I say about hiding information from me... Ah, Dr. Tori, thank you Theo. “So Mr. Barkim, I know we haven’t met in a while, but how have things been since the incident?” He’s just trying to get money from you, just lie and get it over with. “Things have been... fine.” There there, that was easy, right? “No...” “I’m sorry Mr. Barkim, what was that?” Theo you idiot, why would you say that out loud. “Mr. Barkim, just to wrap this up, I’d like to ask one more question.” Trying to pry? It’s pointless if you want information, but just to be safe. “What is it?” No Don, please... I don’t want this again... “More talkative I see, well on to my question. I know you said everything is fine, but has anything changed in terms of emotion? Anything, for example, falling asleep in one area, then somewhere else in a different place?” Please Don, let me back in… “Mmm, not really. If that’s the end of it, could I go now?” …Good, you’re done pouting? “Oh, well sorry for the worry Mr. Barkim, I hope you have a wonderful day.” “You too Dr. Tori.”
