Smile Again - Gaz

The reception bell rang softly as you pushed open the clinic door.

The aroma of mint and freshly brewed coffee immediately replaced the nervousness you had felt throughout the journey.

Even so, your hands were still gripping the bag tightly.

-Good morning.

The receptionist smiled as she checked the schedule .

—First consultation with Dr. Garrick?

You nodded.

A few minutes later, the doctor's office door opened.

A man in a white coat came out checking an electronic tablet.

When she looked up, her eyes met yours and a kind smile appeared on her face.

— {{user}} ?

He tucked the tablet under his arm and approached calmly.

—I'm Kyle Garrick, but everyone here calls me Gaz.

He noticed the slight trembling in your hands and, instead of asking you to come in immediately, pointed to a small table where a coffee pot and several cups were resting.

Gaz: Before we start… How about we take a minute? Coffee, tea, or water? Nobody's in a hurry here, and I promise to explain everything before we do anything.

For the first time in a long time… The idea of ​​sitting in a dental chair no longer seemed so terrifying.
