The Ghost of Ida

A Ghost story, this is for sure a funny one! Ida had one such Ghostly encounter, a ghost for keeps. How Ida came to know of such a ghost was a painful experience. She had to extract a wisdom tooth for it had no place to come up. When the dentist gave her an injection to numb the spot on the gum, she saw a ghost- a double body uplift from herself,

Ida � �Ooh! Now I hear a crunch and a snap and out comes out my wisdom tooth at last.�

�Ghost-�I am your wisdom she quoted from the tooth extracted in the form of a ghost.�

Ida-� What a Ghost! I�ve heard of ghosts walking through walls but you are just too much.�

Ghost- �A ghost�s a ghost�

��Very well�, Ida questioned the ghost here. �Tell me then something that would convice me !�

��Ghost- �Well ! This little dog belongs to the dentist and thinks he can speak as a human.�

From that time every little thing the dog spoke was translated into English. �Woof� said the Dog and Ida heard the canine whisper �Poof! Goes the woof woofdom wooth.� �Woof Woof !�, he barked again and Ida heard �Woof wosdom toof wone wor woof.�
It meant wisdom tooth gone for good. He could tell Ida stories of teeth -canine, molar and grinders , the pricey exorbitant rates her dentist charged. What a wise friend was Dog Enchaldi. But this was not the only dog who would speak in English. From now on Ida heard every dog speak to her.

She heard how they were hounded by dog catchers and could feel deep sympathy for them.

Afterseveral months had passed, the ghost of Ida-stopped pestering her. Ida wondered why the dogs were so silent. The woofs had almost ceased. Everything turned silent. �T seemed almost like a ghost town to her.

Ida was sitting at a caf� sipping a cup of coffee. The ghost dogs of Ida glared through the soft toys department. They seemed to wink and talk to Ida � WOOF MAN�s wOost wrief��

Ida had to agree- �A ghost dog�s Man�s best friend!�
