At the Dentist
I am sitting in the dentist office for getting an old tooth repaired. Suddenly a screaming is heard in the corridor. An old man carrying a screaming child of 10 years enters the clinic. He wants to go straight to the doctor but the receptionist prevents him. The man pleads that the child needs immediate attention due to considerable pain. The receptionist notes down the name of the child and asks for RS. One hundred as consultancy fee the poor man stares in disbelief at the receptionist. But I have got only RS. 50 with me, says the man…”then go somewhere else”, tells the receptionist. The poor man picked up the child and went down the stairs. I sat there for a few minutes waiting for my turn and then got up and asked the receptionist for refund and walked out to find another doctor.
