The only time when I don't look like a fool with my mouth open

The interior was brightly lit, white marble tiles that did wonder in lighting up the room and also, giving a very lasting first impression that says "CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN"

As the dental chair slowly reclines, I remembered primary school's dental appointments, especially the ah neh dentist that everyone is afraid to have. If you are scheduled to have him, it only meant that you have a tooth extraction coming up.

I watched curiously off the reflection of the plastic film that the dentist wore over her mask. That was the only thing to do and it helps to know what's going on. I like to know what's going on, what to anticipate. I am the kind that will look at the needle during injection.

Rarely do I close my eyes
and grope for things in the dark.
I'll admit,
The "what ifs" are paralytic.
But the saying goes nothing venture, nothing gain.

Damn sore throat.
