"The symptoms of President Silverman's anxiety disorder seem to have worsened since before. I think you need to return to the H City and bring him in for an evaluation," the psychologist recommended.
After hanging up the phone, Rosalynn felt a little uneasy for no good reason.
Then she headed towards Ivy's room.
By this time, both Molly and Liam had retreated to their rooms for an afternoon nap.
As she walked into Ivy's room, she found Cory still by Ivy's side.
"Mom."
Cory looked at Rosalynn and called out softly.
Rosalynn walked over, gave Cory a hug and a kiss, and then looked at her daughter, fast asleep.
"Did that scare you?" Rosalynn asked Cory.
Little Cory, with red-rimmed eyes, nodded.
"Dad didn't mean it, okay? Don't be mad at him," Rosalynn said gently.
"Is Dad okay?" Cory asked, after a moment of silence.
"Not great," Rosalynn shook her head, "He's worried we'll leave him."
"No way," Cory responded immediately.
Even though he was mad that Dad had hurt his sister, he never once thought of abandoning him because of it.
"That's what I told him too," Rosalynn sighed softly, petting her son's head, "We probably can't stay with Paige for too long, we need to take Dad back to see a doctor."
"Okay," Cory nodded.
"Don't you want to take a nap?" Rosalynn asked gently.
Cory shook his head, looking at his sister, "I don't want to sleep, I want to stay here with Ivy. I want her to wake up and see someone by her side. It'll make her feel safe."
Rosalynn's heart ached a bit.
The one in need of comfort wasn't just Wayne, but also Cory.
"Max loves drumsticks."
"Got it!"
Outside, Max had retreated to his doghouse since Rosalynn came back.
Now, Max was resting in his doghouse, from time to time opening his eyes to check if Wayne was in his room.
If he didn't see him, Max would close his eyes and continue resting.
He had eaten two cans.
Rosalynn came out of the kids' room.
Unaware of the situation, she grabbed another can.
The dog that was just dozing off suddenly perked up.
He seemed afraid of being found out that he had already eaten two cans, and as soon as Rosalynn poured the can into his bowl, he pounced on it.
