Can someone explain the ending to me? I'm confused.

It doesn’t really manifest in that way and it’s pretty clear that he has ASD and poor social skills. It reads to me like he is imagining and writing in his journal what it might’ve been like if he ended up giving Lucy his number. Just unsure where the DID comes in other than we think were reading from Lucy’s point of view and then find out Lucy, Jake, and the janitor is the same person. I just understood it more of the janitors imaginative writing (from Lucy’s perspective) and not that he has DID.(less)
