Chapter 2
Jacob and Esther make up a story for the members of their family who cannot handle the truth of Deborah's illness. Esther is actually relieved that Deborah tried to slit her wrists because it finally uncovers her sickness, which Esther suspected for a while. Now that Deborah is getting help, she hopes that the uneasiness and worry that has hung over their family will dissipate.
Dr. Fried, a German psychologist, agrees to treat Deborah in the hope that she can help the girl recover enough to enjoy the life that lies ahead of her.
At the hospital Deborah is interviewed by an admitting doctor, and she defies the Yri Censor by answering the doctor's questions honestly. The doctor's questions and her own answers make Deborah afraid, and she recedes into Yr again.
