ms. toothache is gone

I visited a dentist this morning. I took a very deep breath and had taken time preparing myelf before Mama grabbed the door handle which says PUSH.

The last time I visited a dentist was during my entrance to college. We were required to have a dental check-up before we are admitted to college together with a medical examination. Thus, I had some of my decayed precious teeth filled with those friendly-looking cements.

What happened this morning was different. I had to be in the dental clinic to end my sufferings. Toothache attacks had been hounding for the last quarter of 2007. I had always been brave not to see a dentist... because I am afraid of them.

Ms. Veronica extracted my poor ugly tooth. Ma asked if i wanted to take it is a souvenir but I said no. I don't want to remember the miseries it had given me. It wasn't that painful at all. Thanks to anesthesia and modern dental equipments.

I am saying goodbye to Ms. Toothache. But today... "Pangag na ko!"
