CHAPTER 6

“We will be numbing your teeth by inserting this injection, sir, so just sit back and breathe in”, the dentist says as he brings an injection to my insert in my gums.

It’s been a week in Canada and I have had extreme fun, the only downside is not being able to find out a single information about this daughter of William, everyone seems to know he has a daughter but nothing else, not a name, not an age or even where she is at the moment, it was frustrating and annoying but at least I’ve had Emelia and she has been a very good teacher in all things sexual, she even took me to see the sights on a day she faked illness for a sick leave and I had a great time.

And I had to lie about my appointment today because by no means no one was to know my weakness, I’ve hidden the fact that my teeth was bad but I didn’t know how to act during my recovery, I had to find a reason to stop seeing her till I was healed and the braces were off.

I watched the dentist as he lifted different instruments and kept at it till my mouth became tired of hanging open.

“We are done here”, he says after a while and I drop my head and finally close my mouth, it still feel numb and weird, I lift my hand and feel for my mouth to make sure it’s still there, because.

“Don’t worry, in a while you will wish you didn’t feel at all”, he said as he pulled off the gloves.

He and the receptionist were nicer this time around and I wandered why, it wasn’t like the called William to confirm and if he did there was no way William will say he knew me, no way in hell.

I nodded in answer to his comment and he wrote down some drugs and handed it over, “In a while the numbness will wear off and then you will need to take all these pain killers if you want to feel even a bit human”, he says passing me the prescriptions.

“It still feels weird to talk but thanks”, I manage to croak out as I stand to leave, the dentists stands to and walks me out.

“You will need to come back in for the braces and checkups”, he says as we walk out together.

“Have a nice day if you can”, the receptionist calls as I walk out, I raise my hands in a wave as I flag down a taxi and go to nearest drug store.

“You took too long”, I hear as soon as I open the door to my hotel room, I raise my eyes as I shut the door and see Emelia standing in front of me in only her lace panties and bras.

“”Well you can’t get into my room without my permission”, I croak out ignoring the pain that fires through me as soon as I open my mouth.

“Looks like someone had a bad day” She says coming closer.

“Please not tonight, I need to breathe so just leave”, I say trying my hardest to be polite but it seems it didn’t work from the way she stares at me and humphs before stomping in to probably put on something presentable.

I pop in some pain pills hoping that I can at least sleep tonight because the pain I feel from my tooth is passed unbearable.

First of all it was really numb then I started to feel sharp pains anywhere my tongue touched and too soon it spread, it came with a blinding headache and I had to sit in the car park at the medicine store so I could feel even a little bit better.

After a while of continuous pain I began popping in pain meds and the pain was still at a high level, I walk into the room and pass a cussing Emelia who was struggling to put on her shoes in a fit of rage, I simply continued on to the bathroom.

I was pulling off to get into the shower when I heard the door shut, I stepped into the shower and regretted the decision to shower as soon as I lifted my face up and the water hit my already battered mouth, damn, I cried in my heart and stepped out.

This was a shitty experience, I haven’t found out much about the fucking daughter and now I have to go through all this to impress a mother fucker who hates my type of persons for no reasonable reason at all, oh except that we were leaches.

I put on the TV and started watching all his interviews looking for something that pointed to a child or something close to that, maybe a family or something in relations to that when my laptop dinged, probably a notification from my mail and I was in no mood to check it out so I ignored it when it pinged for the second time.

I grudgingly turned and lifted it from my table to see I had a mail as I suspected, I opened it and managed a small laugh.

“I finally found out how to navigate through this shit they call mail, and I wanted to ask why you weren’t spending the money, I received the bank statement and I was surprised and disappointed, the joy you felt when you received the card feels extreme in comparison to how you are spending it, I mean just a lodge and a dentist trip counts for nothing”

The first mail said and I was still chuckling when I opened the second one, still from the same person,

“And you see this is old man Jack, someone suggested that you might not know who it was”

I smiled as I typed a quick response,

“I’ve felt like shit for the past hours because of my teeth, yes it finally looks good and whoever said I wouldn’t know who sent it must be stupid, I mean who else gave me a black card, it wouldn’t take much thinking to figure out, even your mail is all you, who else would have a mail that said thatblackguard@yahoo.com phew, and I haven’t spent much because I want to be remembered when I do start spending so I have to set the face they will remember, now that its done, I will begin to extremely spend, so your next bank statement might just shock you because I will add a kick ass car to my list and n apartment in Canada isn’t so bad an investment. And stop texting like a girl even if you miss me. Be well!”          

I hit send and sat back with a smile, old man Jack, I turned off the light and close my eyes and sleep came early amidst the pain.
