It’s Complicated (Payment, That Is)

(I work in a deli making sandwiches to order. I’ve just finished making sandwiches for a young couple.)

Male customer: “Um…well…we’ve been seeing each other for a while, like a few weeks…I don’t know if we’d say we’re together…I don’t think–”

Female customer: “Yes, we are.” *turns to him* “She just wanted to know if we were paying together!”
