R: (on the phone): Have you seen a doctor yet? You didn’t mention it in your (…) You gotta see a doctor, what’s wrong with you, what you doing? (…) Where are you now? (…) Have you been to the AOK health insurance branch? (…) You’re not in a state to go see a doctor, are you saying? (…) What are the consultation hours of the surgery, have you looked it up?

F: Thirty-six? That’s outrageous!

F: I think I don’t know how to…

R: I don’t know what you’re talking about – off you go!

L: Now go!

But inside my head, I’m having this soundtrack going on all the time. I’m having a great time with my children though, we don’t always weep and cry at home, we’re having a ball! We’re playing games and I don’t even have to shout: Aaron, please! You can’t – it’s not a matter to laugh about! We’re not supposed to crack a – although I had the jokebook with me! I’ve fetched it from his room! Look!
