Appointment with disappointment

Dentists. My God. And that too, female dentists. I dunno why this happens.
I told you I had trouble in Chennai and somehow managed to return to Sharjah with a swelling in the gum.
A cute dentist stays in our building and I went to her clinic last week. She prescribed antibiotics. One week now and I am much better.
Today I was on my usual morning walk and our paths crossed. She smiled, I smiled.
“How do your feel now?” she asked.
“Much better, thanks,” I replied and without realizing I was on the footpath, opened my mouth to convince her am much better.
“Gooddd..,” she almost ran off.
That gossip leader NM, the gardener, was unsparing.
“What were you showing that young lady?” he rushed to ask.
“My teeth.”
“Oh, that’s all?”
What a disappointment! Dirty minds.
