Kimberly's POV

It's been a week later and I woke this morning with my head feeling entirely dizzy. I stayed in bed and texted my boss, Grace so I told her that I couldn't come in today and then Gigi texted me on my phone.

Gigi - Hey Kim, how's your jaw

Me - good thanks anyway

Gigi - you're welcome

Gigi - can you come to my office today so I can remove your splint and make sure there are no extra problems scurrying in your mouth

Me - okay

I stayed in bed for a little while before I started getting ready. I went to my bathroom and got changed. I got into the shower and brushed and spread my hands through my balayage hair and washed it thoroughly. I got out of the shower and got my clothes on. I got my loose jeans on and a black loose shirt. I grabbed my phone and headphones and started listening to music as I walked to Gigi's office. I signed myself in and waited in the waiting room until I heard Gigi come out. "Hey Kim, come on back," Gigi says with a small smile as she sees me. I follow Gigi back to an exam room and I sit down on the chair while Gigi got set up. Gigi puts a bib around my neck and leans the chair back. "So Kim, how old are you now," Gigi asks as she unpacks her tools. "25," I say as I watch her. "Nice," Gigi says as she looks at me with a sympathetic smile. I give her a soft nervous smile in return as I see her unpack pliers. Gigi then places the tray of tools on the table and gets her mask and gloves on. "Open for me Kim," Gigi says softly as she picks her mirror and explorer. "Alright stay still for me hun," Gigi says encouragingly. I nervously nod my head and Gigi grabs a small needle and pokes it into my mouth. "You okay," Gigi asks. I nervously nod my head and Gigi gives an encouraging smile. "Good job now stay still in 3...2...1," Gigi says sympathetically. Gigi picks up the pliers and gently removes the splint and places it on the table. "Good job hun, your jaw looks better and your teeth are in good condition," Gigi says encouragingly as she takes off her mask and gloves. Gigi leans me back up and lets me leave.
