Munich at dawn.
The weather was absolutely splendid.
Outside Penn's clinic, there was a riot of flowers.
Wayne sat across from him, looking a little more gaunt and pale than before, his presence barely noticeable.
"Is he here?" Penn asked Wayne, as he poured him a cup of warm coffee. "The boy, Ayden."
Wayne glanced over to the side.d2
The boy, wearing a striped sweater and jeans, was staring at the flowers outside the window.
Upon seeing Wayne look over, he turned around almost immediately, "Mr. Silverman, these flowers are beautiful. Can I take some back home when I leave? My mother loves flowers. I want to gift them to her!"
Wayne observed carefully.
He was so real and vivid, how could he be an illusion?
"He wants to take some of your flowers back home when he leaves," Wayne croaked out. His voice was a little hoarse from the copious amounts of medication he had been taking.
Penn also looked at the burst of colors outside the window.
Munich at this time of the year couldn't possibly foster such beautiful flowers. The view outside was, in fact, a greenhouse in Penn's research facility.
Technically, it was a greenhouse his mother had always wanted. After taking over the research facility, Penn had the greenhouse built according to his parent's blueprints by the best craftsmen he could find.
"Wayne, there's something I need to show you," Penn said, picking up a remote to turn on a liquid-crystal display screen in the clinic.
The screen lit up, and videos that Mike had found started to play.
