The Door
I am going to be late for my Dr's appointment. I wanted to go to the Travel Agent's too. I'll ring to apologise. There's a phone box. This door is heavy. I push harder, it opens, I fall in. Gosh it's dark in here.
"Who are you?" says a voice from the shadows.
Victoria Richards. I am in a terrible rush. I want to make a phone call. I was going to book a holiday and I have an appointment for a blood test. Are you a doctor--
"Yes, I am The Doctor."
Yes, but doctor who.
"That is correct. I am Doctor Who."
Don't joke. I need to make a phone call.
"Of course, I can help you with your phone call and travel needs. Would you like interplanetary travel or time travel. I can arrange everything for you."
Travel? So, it's not a phone box or the Dr's.
I walk forward towards a light, -- no it can't be. It looks like the control panel of a plane so many flashing lights and screens.
The Doctor says, "You are my dear on the Star Ship Enterprise."
"That's OK then." I say to myself. "Where else would I be on a Monday morning on the way to the doctors."
I must have said the last bit out loud because The Doctor speaks again.
"That's correct my dear. The Doctor is here. I think you mentioned a blood test."
What? No. Let me get out of here. I want to open the door.
The door opens automatically. I run out into blinding sunlight and bump into a passer-by.
"Sorry, sorry, so sorry."
"No harm done. Now look where you are going in the future."
