Exposed Manipulation

As Jerlina ate her breakfast, she felt the excruciating pain in her entire mouth. She knew it is because of the impacted wisdom teeth and the dentist already advised her to do an extraction of the tooth a couple of years ago. 

But the thing is, she is terrified of dentists!

She can barely hold on for routine check-ups, but anything more than that, she'd be terrified. A surgery? She'd die before she is given an anaesthetic. 

She did her usual home remedies and ended up on the bed. Even after taking painkillers, it still hurt and she curled up on the bed. 

Where is Scarlett when you need her?

Jerlina rolled on the bed. With how "curious" she was last night, she thought she'd visit in the morning. 

Should I call her?

Jerlina tried to get her phone, but then another bout of pain crippled her and she curled back on the bed. 

It's fine... It will go away in a day or two like always...
