Coffee with Manny

I stopped to see Manny after a trip to town.
Manny has had some problems with his landlord and will now move in to the little one door, no windows shack behind the cement slab that is his work area.
Now we will be real neighbors.
His helper/cousin/nephew is moving back to Ciudad Juarez so Manny will be on his own.
Hey Man, he said. Since we now are neighbors and I will be here all the time, stop by one morning for some coffee.
You do drink coffee ?
I said I did.
Good, he smiled, took a deep breath and said with great pride
I have Taster's Choice.
How could I not accept such as offer.
