Ambika

The boy was sitting on a chair facing me, just like you. There was a man wearing a mask, sitting next to him. He was holding a scary tool and looking straight into the boy’s wide open mouth. It looked like he was in search of some treasure. After many instruments and a hard pull, he found it. It was a tooth. The whole thing looked exciting the first couple of times. Like it was straight out of a movie or something. I used to look forward to the shriek, the pleading look in the patients eyes and the vengeful pull from the Dentist. But now it’s become monotonous. I wish there was something more exciting happening down there.
