The last stance
“No, no, no. Not the last stance, the last dance! That’s what it’s called. Because it’s the last performance of one of the senior choreographers who’s retiring”
“Well if he’s so tiring, how will you even last a performance then?”
“Not tiring, he’s re-tiring. He’s old!”
“Old? And he’s still dancing? Heck, I get tired walking out on the balcony!”
“Well, he’s not exactly the one dancing. He just directs the rest. So you’ll come, right?”
“I’ll try, dear.”
“Great! You’ll love it, I’m sure. Now I have to go get my costume. Do you want me to bring you anything?”
“No, dear. I’m fine. Thank you.”
“Sure? No, ice cream, no pie, no sweet of any sort, nothing?”
“Sweet? My sugar levels are already up the roof!”
“Ok then. I’ll be back in a jiff!”
“In a jeep? Where will you get a jeep from?
“In a jiff, grandma! Not a jeep! Am I not enunciating right?”
“Of course, it would be emancipating, dear. Just not for our times. In the 60s perhaps, yes.”
“Emancipating? But I said enunciating! Oh, anyway. I’m off! See you later, grandma!”
“Ok, dear. Just be careful with that jeep, it’s not as liberating as you may think! I would know!”

Ha ha too good. Loved this post. The dialogue was very well written and brings out the personalities of the two people in it very well.
