Is he a doctor?
I think im in the wrong room. the man in front of me is wearing a worn out blue polo tee, with jeans. Is there a dress down for doctors on Sundays? well. lets just see what he can do.
doctor wannabe: (looks at me. expecting me to say something 1st)
me: uh yea. im having a bad throat. its worse at night. cant really sleep cuz i keep coughing.
wannabe: ok. tts all?
me: yea. im not having a fever. but can i have some stronger medicine cuz i dont want my cough to drag on for too long...
wannabe: normally these cough meds are quite default. theres no remedies.theres nothing much i can do too. just rest for a week or two n u'll probably be fine.
me: uh. oh. okay (wtf. like. i dont need to spend $40.90 to come to you to hear these unhelpful words)
wannabe: actually its best to just take some honey with lemon. it cures better than anyyyy of these medicines here. (grins)
me: ER. hurhur. ya i guess so too (oh fuck. im paying you so much. and you tell me that ur medicines are no better than honey n some stupid lemon? c'mon. easy job for u huh DOCTOR.im not a dumb girl. and im telling you im just gonna walk out and not pay u a single penny. dont u get it twisted!)
wannabe: yup. so i guess thats all ( grins again)
me: oh. ok thanx a lot. (and i think i smiled)
(and i paid $40.90. got my medicines. left RafflesMedical Clinic)
what a joke.
