“Turns out he’s terrible company.” I get it. God, I get it. My phone buzzes again. I flip it face down on the bar with more force than necessary. “Persistent,” he observes. “Delusional.” “Ah. One of those.” “One of what?” “The ones who don’t realize they’ve already lost.” He tilts his head, studying me with an intensity that should feel invasive but doesn’t. “You’re done. He just hasn’t accepted it yet.” “You got all that from a buzzing phone?”

How could he possibly have access to it? “If that’s true,” I said carefully, “then why am I in a cellar and not a hospital? Why no windows, no clock, no contact with the outside world? Why no actual medical treatment beyond Carlisle’s visits and whatever he puts in my food?” Clarksdale made another note, his pen scratching away the last of my hope. “You’re describing delusions consistent with paranoid schizophrenia, Georgia. The reality is quite different. This isn’t a cellar—it’s a specially outfitted suite in Carlisle’s home. The windows are covered for your own protection, after you tried to break the glass and harm yourself. The clock stopped because you smashed it against the wall durin

“She really believed it. That delusion in her eyes she genuinely thought Damien loved her.” “Erotomania,” Marcus said, having stayed close. “It’s a delusional disorder.

He’s going to love me soon!” Ice insisted, shaking her head stubbornly like the very idea of rejection physically pained her. I was about to roll my eyes when Mom spoke again. “Do you even know what diagnosis a doctor would give you if you got yourself checked, Ice?” Ice blinked, confused. “Delusional disorder. And you’d be prescribed some delulu pills,” Mom added dryly, barely even blinking as she said it.

The police have already identified the man. His name doesn't matter. What matters is the profile: a loner. Diagnosed with schizophrenia. Severe delusions. Every day he watched Mia's films, and every day he believed she was speaking to him. His apartment had no windows. The walls were covered with her posters, her photos, magazine cutouts, printed screenshots from interviews. A shrine built in a dark room by a man who had confused obsession with love.

He stretched out his hand and even knelt down directly. At this time, a prison guard happened to come over. When I saw Aiden talking to himself in the air and slapping himself repeatedly, and adding special instructions from his superiors, I quickly reported it. Aiden was taken out. Doctor's diagnosis: delusional disorder. There's no way Aiden can live in prison like this At the beginning, he was still awake. Until later, he was afraid of light and didn't like noise, so he mistook a teddy bear that Isabella liked for Isabella.
