tina and coco


suddenly i thought about my next door neighbor i met 6 years ago when i was still in calarts. he was a middle-aged single guy with a dog.
" hi. did you just move in? i live right next your apartment. i'm ted. this is my dog buddy."
"hi. i'm jeana and this is my dog choco."
"nice to meet you, tina. aw,, coco, you are a cutie. you and buddy should play sometime."
i knew he got our names wrong but some reason i didn't bother to tell him. since that day he called us " tina" and "coco" and i've never had a chance to fix him.

one year later, i was packing to move out, he walked in and went
"oh man. tina. are you moving out? that's a bummer."
i was dying to tell him that we are not "tina and coco" but instead i said
"coco will miss buddy. take care, ted."
