[ WP ] You ignorantly entered a magic potion shop that is normally invisible to regular people . The shop keeper tries his best to not let you realize what kind of shop this really is .

`` The hair of the dog'', the shimmering letters were engraved into the stone facade over a strangely not wood-looking wooden door I was pretty certain I had never seen before. I looked down at Bella's cute vacant face and then back towards the door. It certainly did n't look like your typical vet's clinic but it was conveniently located right on the other side of the street ( unlike Dr. Jones's which I would first have to take the bus three stops and then switch to the tube and then... GAH! I'm exhausted just thinking about it ). As a matter of fact did n't Alex scold me yesterday for not trying new things? I mean we are talking about some worms here. Anybody should be able to do it if I really think about it. I grasped the door handle and tasted a slight minty flavour as I entered the shop. 
 
 A thick blueish fog spread across the small room which was filled to the brim with containers and bottles of all sizes and shapes. At the very back of the shop a vat of floating eyes and a silvery bell stood on a tiny counter crammed between the shelves. I took a few uncertain step towards the counter and as soon as a rang the bell a tall woman in elegant clothing seemed to appear from thin air. A few moments of silence passed. 
 `` You look a little old for this to be your first time'', she sniped in a very nasal voice. 
 `` Well, this is n't really my first time but we usually go to Dr. Jones's clinic'', I replied despite being really sure of what she was getting at. 
 `` Just give me your arm please!''. A bit discombobulated by the strange smells and the increasingly cross shop assistant I reached out my arm. She immediately gasped at the sight of my rather ordinary arm. 
 `` No sign? How is that possible? And you can see me‽'', she fluctuated between whispering and shouting out loud. I was starting to become quite annoyed. 
 `` My eyes are perfectly fine miss! It's my dog I want you to have a look at'', and with that I grabbed Bella and put her on the counter. She was, of course, as oblivious as usual. The shop assistant looked a bit anxious: 
 `` You only want me to assess this creature and then you'll be on your way''. I answered with a slight nod and she smiled an uncertain smile. She started to prod the dog's belly lightly and continually looked back at me as to gauge my reaction. 
 `` Yes, this is indeed an ogd! ``, she suddenly exclaimed. 
 `` Dog'', I corrected. 
 `` Yes, yes! A uniquely good dog!''. 
 `` And the worms?''. 
 `` Ah, yes! The worms! And you want to...'', she started gesturing wildly with her hands. 
 `` Get rid of them'', I answered almost starting to doubt myself. 
 `` Of course! We'll get rid of your worms in no time madame'', she excitedly told the rear end of Bella. Suddenly the shop assistant was at the top of an impossibly long ladder, balancing a jug of some kind of glowing liquid on her head whilst descending back down again. 
 `` Drink this seventeen times a day for half a day and the worms should be gone in two to three weeks''. She was just about to hand me the jug when it suddenly hit me: the herbs, the musky smells and the strange assortment of animal body parts. 
 `` Wait a minute! I know whats going on here. ``, the poor woman looked petrified. 
 `` This is n't one of those holistic, new agey, alternative medicine-type places, is it?''. At first the shop assistant kept still but then she nodded slowly. 
 `` Did Alex put you up to this somehow? ``, she nodded again. 
 `` For crying out loud! I'm sorry she dragged you into this. I'll just pay for the'medicine' and be out of here as soon as possible''. 
 
 And so I stood there, back on the pavement, with a jug of glowing liquid in my left hand and Bella's leash in the other. I could n't wait to give Alex a piece of my mind. She knew I really could n't care less about chakras or qis and still she had to keep teasing me with it. But I forgot all about that when the strangely not wood-looking wooden door started to shrink until it was n't there anymore.
