My daughter and I had a dental appointment at our usual practice, but this time it was with a male dentist, rather than the lady we usually have. He seemed a bit air-headed. I was nervous, but all my nerves were quashed, when he told me "Yep, your teeth are fine, on to your daughter!" I was left feeling confused but happy (I hate the dentist!) "You haven't even see my teeth though!" I thought. Suddenly, my mother-in-law appeared and started handing out her unsolicited advice. "NO one cares, Lesley!" I whispered quietly through gritted teeth. Phoebe was next in the chair and whilst he doing his inspection, a bunch of school children barged through a door on the other side of the room. They were waking two by two and laughing and joking. There was one girl who stood out from the crowd. She was much smaller than the rest of the children, with dark hair in plaits. She's adorable!" I thought. "I want her!" But then they all disappeared and walked into the playground...in which I was now standing alongside my (ex husband) It was the school pick up. When I looked down at my phone I saw that I had a text message from him, as if he wasn't standing right here beside me. "How strange!" I thought. A miss call from my mother too. "I'll phone her later!" And with that thought in mind, I woke up.
