Me: Ok, i'll see how it goes, (meanwjile, it's not like i'm d one paying o!)
Doc: so when are u coming to commence treatment so we can book u down.
Me: which treatment? (my thots) i would have just saved myself all these stress n shakara by going to Randle clinic o! by now i'll just pay like 5k and come out feeling fresh.
(to the doc) i'll leave it for later this week, that's when i make up my mind o!
Doc: I know u're scared of the treatment madam, it's same wit most of our patients (my thots) who tell u say i fear treatment na the money i fear jare!
Doc: we'll leave it for thursday, but u gotta pick a tyme urself. If u come in the morning, u'll meet doc A but if u come later in the day, i'll attend to u. so which do u want? ( my thots)yea, i already noticed u enjoy my being a chatterbox.
Me: (kinda feeln flirty) imma leave it for later, will rather have u see my ugly teeth. "chuckling" (i drink sef?)
Doc: Great then, (turns to the receptionist) the bill (back to me) plz give dis to ...............
Me: why wont u guys just pass it down, do i have to carry the bad news around myself? well, i reluctantly delivered the message and the instruction from .... is commence treatment ASAP. (if i asked for that money for personal use, i'm very sure i wouldn't have gotten it that easy o, now this ole buruku will chop it alone)
On thursday: i kinda feel exicted and dress to kill, leave the office at about 3pm so i can meet my 4pm appointment.
Doc: are u not glad to see me?
Me: in ur wildest dreams! (can someone plz tell this rubba that i got a bobo!)heheheheheeeeehehe....
They do the cleaning and brushing and all wat not( to be sincere it felt good o) Then they book me for next week tuesday, same time(which means same doctor), well i wont dress to kill again o, cos i narrowly escaped getting stained wit all the plenti washing water.lol
On my way out,(receptionist) sori ma, the doctor wants to have a word wit u. (me feeling like, o! he wants to say it now, i know u like me)
Doc: i'm soo sorry but i forgot to add dis to the invoice i gave u, i smile thinking it's another discount.
Me: looks at the invoice, 40 wat?
Doc: this is supposed to be for the crown filling but i forgot to include it,my bad! This sums the bill up to 130k.
Una dey crase, abeg berra send the message down urself o! i no go again! hissssssssssssssssssssssss.
PS: ermmmm, my tooth is still shinning o! i have refused to eat any oily food since yesterday and i'm seriously looking for anyone dat's got a toothpaste advert to offer.
