Chapter 2018 Ups and Downs
It was like grasping at a straw of salvation.
Larry embraced Xaviera with such intensity that it felt like he was trying to merge with her.
Peter meticulously documented everything in the file.
Xaviera bombarded him with so many questions that day, her eyes welling up with tears.
Peter also gave her some psychological counseling.
The reunion of the two was a poignant moment. Although Alivia didn't appear to be approving of Xaviera, she still allowed them to meet.
For Larry to receive good treatment, Xaviera coaxed him, and as long as he cooperated, she would come to accompany him every day.
Psychotherapy had not been just as effective thirty years ago as it was today.
Athena examined the treatment plans documented in the file, filled with yellowed paper that still evoked anguish and suffocation, even after three decades had passed.
Nonetheless, Larry carried it through in order to see Xaviera every day.
After another six months elapsed, Larry's condition was under control, as noted in the file.
On April 8th, he was discharged from the hospital.
Fast-forward one year, however, and everything had changed.
Xaviera had passed away.
Larry's illness resurfaced, causing him to attack Alivia at home and ultimately leading to his readmission to Peter.
During his first medical treatment after returning, Peter wrote: [The patient's mood is extremely manic, and he is much more surprised than before.]
Consultation records between Peter and Larry were included in the file as well.
"Alivia kicked down the ladder. She knew that Xaviera saved my life, so she should be grateful, right? But she didn't. She told me that Xaviera was a good person, and she said even if I stayed together with her, I would still have to get married to someone else. Xaviera can be a mistress, and she will not treat Xaviera badly!
"What is that deranged woman thinking about Xaviera?! Not only did she inform me, but she also went looking for Xaviera who is now in immense agony!
"I refuse to marry anyone, and I'll never marry, even if it costs me my life. I only desire Xaviera, and I cannot survive without her!
