The Dentist and her last kiss




As she flips through her planner she realizes the last visit to her new psychiatrist  has been missed the last time, she calls her psychiatrist  and fixes an appointment for tomorrow. She ponders over the fact that even after changing more than 5 psychiatrists over the years, she hasn’t been able to derive any benefits.


It wasn’t always like that, during her studies at the dental college she was doing just fine, its only at the later stages, once she had started her clinic did she start having this problem. She hadn’t discussed her problem with any of her friends or relatives but she have had lots of discussion on forum boards and chatrooms with fellow dentists if they suffered from the same problem, she was amazed to know that this problem was something that only she had…


She had often wondered if leaving this field would be of any help, after taking suggestion from one of her psychiatrist she had taken a leave for a month, but that didn’t help her either…


She is already past her marriageable age, she is nearing 32 now and she has been unable to give reasons to her family as to why she doesn’t want to marry as of now. Her family had arranged meeting with many of prospective grooms she liked some of them and had gone out with them… she almost fell in love with one of them and would have married him in an instant if not for her problem…


Dr. Pooja Trivedi read the board on the door as she sat waiting for her chance to be let in, someone had drawn dots in the center of the two “oo” of pooja on the board which now looked like a pair of boobs, she felt the urge to draw a bra over it..


Dr: hi, how r u?


Smita: Fine Doc.


Dr: So.. whats the problem?


Smita: Actually I am a dentist, and after a year of my starting the clinic I have developed this problem, where I cant think of kissing someone..
I mean,,, after seeing all the dirty mouths and tongue.. I feel like puking at the thought of someone putting their tongue in my mouth..
It certainly has to do with the occupation that I am in, being a dentist and having to look into ppl’s mouth all the time I have developed this thing.. you know doc if you look thru microscrope, u can see all those small germs and stuff I cant just make my self to kiss some one…
The image of blood and yellow colored puss, flowing between the cavity comes to my mind.. that’s the reason I haven’t married yet, how could I say to my husband not to kiss.. neither had I any affair in past 1 year..
The last time I had affair with this guy, and we were having sex and I had managed to allow him to kiss, suddenly these images came to my mind and had puked all over him…
          She had this almost by heart after having told the same to all the psychiatrists over the years..


Dr: This is a very unique case that I m facing, I guess I will need to check some references before I could suggest you a treatment.. how about Monday next week..


As she left the doctor and made her way back to her car, she remembered how it was the most embarrassing moment of her life when she puked on him. She had ran from there never to return… He did try to call her.. but she never accepted his call and had shifted to a new city the very next morning… she was simply incapable of giving an answer..


As she continued to clean ppl’s mouth and mend their teeth, she thought of how long it had been that she had sex with someone… she remember how much she liked to kiss, and her bf’s in the past had complimented on her unusual ability to do so… she tried to recall when was the last time she kissed and from when did she got this repulsion towards kissing… all this thoughts about kissing and sex made her wet between the legs….


She ordered the receptionist to not send any more patients for 15 minutes and lunged for the vibrator in the last drawer.. 



P.S Dont laugh too much about the sketch, i know its childish but as a kid i always liked stories with illustrations, so drew this just as an after thought... just for the sake of those memories where i would spend hours looking at those drawings.. i still wish if todays novels too contained illustrations..

  1. nice one..

    but tell me this, why is she telling her mental problems to a physiatrist??? far as i know, a physiatrist is someone who works on Physical Rehabilitation (mostly related to physical injuries etc..).

    Did u mean a psychiatrist ???
