Teletubbies Gone Wild

Rats and winks

     "Honey, I'm hoOooMme," Tinky bellowed from the doorway. Po walked in from the bedroom.
     "Hey, Tink. Something weird happened today..." Po said. He felt icky about what had happened, even though the officer hadn't found anything.
     Tinky's face scrunched up in a but of worry. "Are you alright?" He walked over to where Po was sitting and put a hand on his shoulder. Po was looking down, silently refusing to make eyecontact.
     "Yeah, yeah, I'm alright. It's just- well there was an officer by here today. He asked for you, and he searched the place. He didn't find anything, but I'm just worried. Have you gotten too deep into anything?" Poe ran through the words quickly. He was nervous to hear what Tink might say, how he'd react.
     There was a heavy silence in the room for a moment. Tink removed his hand from Po's shoulder and sat on the couch with him. "I wonder who the rat is," he said with an airy laugh.
     "What do you think the cop was looking for? Just Cocaine?" Po heard the words he had just said bounce around the air for a moment and realised he'd said 'just cocaine' as though it was nothing. He kinda felt like a bad b-i-c-t-h for a moment, but then his stomach was back in knots.
     "For sure. Good thing I've got a storage unit, yeah?" he said while jabbing Po in the ribs a bit. Po forced a little laugh out and nodded.
     Tink could tell he was uneasy, but with Po it was always best to just let him fizzle out. "Alright, have a good night, bud. Finding the rat has been added to tomorrow's agenda," he said as got up from the couch. Po said goodnight and Tink gave him a wink and some finger guns and left to his and Lala's room.
