Wrong Number

My koko (pronounced goo-coo), aka grandmother, is in the hospital. They're struggling to discover just what is wrong with her. She hasn't felt well for a while. She is definitely where she needs to be.

The hospital is called Mary Greeley. Ma needed to talk with a Mary somebody else whose last name begins with a G. She doesn't know this other Mary very well (the person, not the hospital). Ma had saved the hospital's phone number as Mary Greeley in her contacts.

Ma - [dials Mary Greeley]

phone ringing

Koko - [picks up phone] Hello?

Ma - [doesn't recognize Koko's voice] Hi! Can I speak with Mary Greeley?

Koko - [recognizes Ma's voice] She went shopping!

Koko - [busts up laughing]

Ma - [still doesn't recognize Koko's voice; very, very confused]


This is why I love my koko.
