“No please come in Monique I’d like you to meet my friend” Tina introduced “Jodie this is a very good friend of mine, Monique” she pointed to Jodie “Monique this is Jodie.”

“Hello” Monique walked in and waved at Jodie.

“Hello” Jodie stood up and waved back.  She was blown away by Monique’s beauty.

“I just wanted to say goodbye before heading back to the center” Monique told Tina.

“Monique is a counselor at the center for single mothers but she’s been helping out with a scene they’re almost done shooting.”  Tina said and signed at the same time to Jodie, who turned her attention back to the young brunette.

“Wow she’s hot” Jodie signed, bit said “Hello” she signed and said two different things.

“Jodie” Tina tried to sign back.

“I’d do her in heart beat” Jodie signed to Tina while smiling at Monique, but said something different “It is very nice to meet you” she said at the same time.

“Thank you” Monique laughed at Jodie “I wish I could say the same about you” she signed back.

“Oh oops” Jodie was taken by surprise as she saw what Monique communicated then looked at Tina.

“That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you, her son is deaf and she’s been teaching me how to sign” Tina looked apologetically at Monique.

“I see.  It looks like I’ve used both hands to stuff both feet in it” Jodie looked at Monique “I’m sorry, please excuse my stupidity.  It’s just that you’re so breathtaking” she came back.

“It’s okay, I’ll see you next week Tina” Monique turned to Jodie “It has been interesting meeting you Jodie.”  She signed before she turned to walk out the door.

“Bye Monique” Tina yelled out then looked at her friend disapprovingly.  “Very smooth Exlax.”  She signed to her friend, who stood looking down at her feet.

“You should’ve given me better warning” Jodie looked up from her feet trying to pass the blame to Tina.

“I’m not even going to reply to that one” Tina waved it off.

Jenny had just announced cut for the last shot of the day, and Carmen had all that she needed before moving to the sound editing booth.  She stood up and started to walk away when she collided with Sam who was turning off the camera equipment.
