Chapter Thirteen

It was impossible not to love Rennie Telfair. In fact, Rennie had become something like a father figure to her in recent years. When Jasmine Bain received his call and asked if she would meet with him and a friend of his, she couldn’t even think of turning him down. She was on location for a film, so she wasn’t home, but she was due back in L.A. for an appearance on one of the nighttime talk shows to do an interview about the movie she was currently shooting.

She’d been glad to get the break and head back to the city. Being on location was often quite dull. Mostly, she sat around in her trailer all day and waited for someone to call her to the set. There was a shoot schedule, but the current director wasn’t one who followed the schedule to the letter like others she had worked with before. Had been anyone else, she would have put off the meeting until they wrapped up shooting, but seeing Rennie and engaging in his eccentric manner was sure to break up her dull routine. So she agreed to see him after the interview was over.

He didn’t tell her much about the friend who was coming with him, for all Jasmine knew, Rennie as presenting a new love interest, though she couldn’t guess what sort would fall for him. He was the type who everyone loved to be around to break up the monotony, but she feared that an extended engagement with the man would be maddening. She was considering the thought when the intercom buzzed and her assistant, Jack’s voice followed.

“Miss Bain, there is a Mister Telfair and a Miss Moon to see you.”

“Send them to my green room.”

“Will do.”

“Jack!” she called out.

“Yes, Miss Bain,” he responded.

“Do you have any word on where we are on the shoot schedule?”

“You’re probably not going to be on set tomorrow.”

“So, can I stay in L.A. tonight?”

“I’ll check and get back to you.”

“Jack!”

“Yes.”

“One more thing.”

“Shoot.”

“Do we have any Coke?”

“Any what? I know we’ve got Diet Coke but I doubt there’s any regular.”

“Never mind.”

She finished her conversation with Jack only a couple of minutes before there was a knock at the door.

“Miss Bain,” another of the backstage assistants called out. “Your visitors.”

Jasmine moved toward the door and pulled it open.

“Rennie Telfair,” she said, moving into her best impression of Scarlet O’Hara. “I do declare it has been ages since I’ve laid my baby blues on ya. You get on in here and give me a hug!”

“Why Miss Bain, you might just pass for a Georgia Peach yet,” he retorted.

“I’ve been working on it,” she laughed.

“Well, it is delightful.”

“You crazy man,” she giggled.

“A’int a girl within a hundred-mile radius of Seagull Point as purdy as you, darlin’.”

“You lie better than any man I know,” she laughed and took a seat. “And I love you for it.”

“Miss Bain…” Rennie began, drawing the beautiful, young lady with him forward.

“Jazzy… You know you’re never to call me Miss Bain, Rennie Telfair.
