Chapter Eight

Getting off the phone with Craig, Sandy couldn’t believe what he said. Sure, he’d said he wanted to go out with her in writing as well and she could read it whenever she wanted, but she still couldn’t believe it was true. It seemed so bizarre to her; he found her attractive even though he’d only seen her with an injured face. It was impossible for her to believe it could be a real attraction. He probably just feels sorry for me and wants to be friendly since he feels bad about what happened. She’d long since stopped blaming him for the accident. She wasn’t completely thrilled with his brother, of course, but as far as she was concerned it was just a bad mistake and she wished to move on. Was it possible to move on from it if she kept seeing Craig?

Sandy agreed to go out with him in large part because she was curious. He was the only person she felt comfortable seeing while her face was all messed up from the rhinoplasty, and not only because he was the plastic surgeon who worked to help fix her nose but also – and perhaps more importantly – because he was kind to her even when she hadn’t been kind to herself. He’d never treated her like she was just a pretty face, because in all the time he’d known her, her face hadn’t exactly been pretty.

I’m glad he doesn’t seem to recognize me from the show, she thought. If he knew what I really looked like, he’d probably treat me differently. Even though Sandy worked in comedy, she was still a theatre person after all and she had a flair for the dramatic a lot of the time. She imagined herself as the young woman in Eyes Without A Face, an old French film about a doctor who horribly disfigured his daughter’s face. Sandy knew she wasn’t horribly disfigured though, not really… But she supposed it was the actor in her. She needed to not only be pretty but to feel pretty in the eyes of the public! And this was why she couldn’t take Craig entirely seriously. He wanted to get to know her because he felt bad for her. It was the only thing that made sense to her.

Still, lying on her futon in the middle of her tiny apartment, Sandy looked forward to going out with him. She looked forward to having a reason to leave her place and walk amongst ‘the living’ again. As much as she wanted to hide herself away from people’s judging gazes, she also longed to go back to living like normal. She wanted to be treated the way she used to be treated by her castmates and the writers of the show. Maybe this whole experience could even help shape her into the sort of actress she always wanted to be. She didn’t have to always portray the dumb blonde in sketches. She wanted to prove she
