Knowing The Tango

He loved her but he didn't know it. She loved him but she didn't know it. So they both got married to other people, and enjoyed it.

Occasionally, they would meet at parties. They would sit and talk and drink and talk, dying to dance a slow jazz number with each other. 

Sometimes she or he would ask:
"Care to dance?" 
Sometimes he or she would answer:
"Do you know The Tango?"

And they would both laugh and clink glasses and drink and talk and then go home and secretly practise every step of the fucking Tango.
