Not good ;-{
Coke and other soft drinks have sugars and acids that corrode. So its very important to clean it all out as quickly as possible.
You might be able to pop off the keycaps and then using cotton swabs (Q-Tips) moistened with distilled water (not tap water!) clean out what is left. Then using Isopropyl alcohol (85% or better) go over the areas again.
If you are lucky the Coke didn't penetrate deeper. If it did then this will be expensive as the upper case assembly will need to be replaced. Here is the IFIXIT guide to give you an idea how much work it will be MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2010 Upper Case Replacement.
