In the last July, I had to go a root canal therapy and replace one of my teeth. The Dentist was so nice and handled me so nicely. Even after she handled me very carefully, I got a lot of pain and shouted very loudly whenever I had pain.

After the treatment was completed and my tooth was placed, one of the assistant cum receptionist said,

Even the youngest in our house (8 years kid) never shouted in the name of pain when he had treatment.

After listening to her words I got very angry as I was still having a lot of pain.

Fast forward six months today my mother was having the same treatment. The doctor said that the cost would be 12000/- and asked to pay it immediately. I went to the bank and withdrew money(all hundred rupee notes).

I went to the receptionist and gave her the bundle, they don’t have a cash counting machine as it was a small dental clinic. She immediately gave a stare at me and asked who would count if you bring all in hundreds?

I replied,

Even the youngest in our house doesn’t feel pain in counting them.

Man, you should have looked at her face, at that moment.


PS: She had to count 4 times to verify if we had given her correct amount. I actually asked the banker if they had 10 rupees notes. He ended up giving me 100 rupee notes.
