Totally Lost It

(The tech-lead and I are going out for lunch. I realise I forgot something so I go back to the office, leaving the tech-lead at the front door. When I’m coming back, he’s nowhere to be seen. Another well-known colleague of the same team passes by. I start ‘crying’ like a baby.)

Colleague: *catching up* “Oooh. You lost your mummy?”

Me: “Noooooo! I lost my tech-leaaaad!”

(The tech-lead appears, coming out of the washroom.)

Colleague & Me: *happy like two children who found their parent* “Tech-leaaaaaad!”
