There are various ways. A simple one is to put both messages in a
message box seperated by a comma. Then both will come after each
other. If you want to temporarily store any normal message, you can
use the [list] object's right inlet. Send a bang to the left inlet to
retrieve the message. A more complex setup is possible with
list-fifo.pd from the [list]-abs collection, which is a first in,
first out buffer for arbitrary messages (list-lifo is the same for
last in, last out). Just send messages to its second inlet and get the
messages out again one by one with bangs into the first inlet.
