It is the Festival of Lights tomorrow, but Magan was panicking.
One of his front teeth broke and he needed a fix immediately.
He pointed at the tooth and I nodded.
Words couldn’t express his feeling; so we did not have to describe much.
We just needed to get it done.
Within half an hour, I fixed the tooth. Magan felt much relieved.
Nevertheless, I still reminded him that judging from the size of the fracture and given that the tooth had fractured more than one time; the better solution would be a crown.
Magan replied yes and rushed to prepare for the celebration tomorrow.
It wasn’t the best solution but at least I gave him a carefree festive celebration. =)
To those who celebrates Deepavali:
Another year will be over, another year will come.
I hope and pray that the lights of Diwali illuminate the new chapter of your life. Happy Diwali!
Thank you.
