Coworker #1: It was a real pleasure meeting Mon-Mon last night at dinner.
Coworker #2: Yes, it was. She’s a real sweetheart.
Coworker #1: Yes, she is. So, is she just staying with you for a bit?
Him: (thinking, confused, and wondering where this is going so he opts for): Yup. She’s the girl I’m dating this week.
Coworker #1: Oh. I see.
Coworker #2: (His name)! That is SO not true. There’s a picture of you two on your desk!
Him (laughing): Why you all up in my desk business?
Coworker #1 (confused): So she IS your girlfriend?
Him: Yes. We’ve been together almost five years now.
Coworker #1 (even more confused): But at dinner last night, you said that you had just picked her up at the airport Sunday night.
Him: (pauses, let’s what she said sink in) True. She was just out of town for the weekend and I picked her up at the airport Sunday night.
Both coworkers: (laughing)
Later that evening after he relays the story to me….
Me (smiling): I’m suprised you didn’t tell them I was your roommate.
