Chapter 11

They both looked at you in sadness.

"But that's true! Lalita said-" "If Lalita told you then she would've told me first!"

You burst through her sentence. The two of them looked at you in disbelief as you stood up and left the living room. 

"Sorry. I have an appointment with Dr. Timoteo today. And I'm getting late."

                                                   *At Dr. Timoteo's Office*

You came to Dr. Timoteo's office and knocked on his back door. His assistant, Miss Martin was the one who answered. She asked you why you came so early when the clinic isn't even open yet and you told her it was about the medicine she received. So, she let you inside and soon enough, you met with Dr. Timoteo in his patient room.

"So, what's your problem today?"

Dr. Timoteo started.

"Well."

You continued. 

"I've been getting better the past week but, I've been getting very weird dreams after I started taking the medication. Is this supposed to happen, or am I doing something wrong?"

Dr. Timoteo sat there in silence for a couple of seconds before answering. 

"It can indeed happen due to the medication you are taking. The type of medicine you are taking is classified as a heavy medication and we might need to change up your prescriptions a little if that's the case." "And what if it isn't?"

You asked him.

"Then, it can happen due to stress and anxiety. Your body might be so overwhelmed about your daily life, that it will cause you to see weird and unusual dreams to release dopamine that you lack so much every day."

He sat there in silence, thinking.

"Do you take any type of intoxicants or stimulants?"

You looked up at him, confused.

"What do you mean?"

You asked him.

"Well, do you take drugs, alcohol, recreational drugs, supplements -" "No I don't."

You quickly answered.

"Ok then. Do you have any sleep diseases such as insomnia?"

You swayed your head.

"I only started getting insomnia when I started seeing the weird dreams."

He nodded and hummed.

"What do you usually eat before bed?"

You thought a little, recalling your memories.

"I usually eat salad or fish."

He nodded, sitting there in silence for another moment.

"Then you're pregnant!"

You jumped up and shook your hands violently.

"No, no, no, that can't be true. I never had anything with anyone, and I don't have a boyfriend or husband."

The doctor laughed and smiled widely.

"I was just joking with you. Sit down, I'll prescribe you a lighter medicine."

You fell back down in your spot and breathed deeply.

"One day, I might die from such jokes."

You heard the doctor chuckle as he pulled out another container.
