Just as Eileen was about to leave the restroom, someone appeared.

Eileen hesitated before asking, “What is it, Richard?”

“Ms. Eileen, please take a look at this.”

Richard handed her a piece of paper. Eileen unfolded it and realized it was a psychological medical report indicating severe depression.
