The Human Equivalent Of Frustration

I looked back at her. "All the time."

She seemed like she had no idea what to say in response.

I kept my smirk to myself.

"I hope the scene goes well."

I shrugged. "I know my lines. What about you?"

I looked back at her and she just nodded with a swallow.

I raised an eyebrow. "How old are you again? 38?"

She widened her eyes. "What?"

I tilted my head and crossed my arms over my chest. "Are you older than that?"

She shook her head vigorously. "I'm 34!"

I nodded. "Good for you."

"How old are you?"

I smirked and turned back to her. "28."

She shook her head and sighed. "Good for you."

I nodded. "What did you do when you were my age?"

She smiled. "A lot of people."

I gasped and it only made her grin wider.

One of the ensemble members, Jack, came to his spot and took Jennie with him a few feet away.

I took a few steps in their direction, turned around and I heard:

"ACTION!"

Miranda walked down the hallway when she turned around at Scott calling her.

"Miranda!"

She turned around and smiled at Scott. "Hi! How are you?"

He smiled his charming grin. "I have someone for you to meet." He gestured to the woman beside him.

"This is Jennie—"

"CUT!"

Jack blushed and I rolled my eyes.

He apologized to Jennie and she kept saying, "It's alright" with a shy grin.

I just stood there like an idiot.

Then I heard Levi say, "Alright! Let's start from I have someone for you to meet! ACTION!"

He smiled his charming grin. "I have someone for you to meet." He gestured to the woman beside him.

"This is Tracy. She's an intern that will be following you."

Tracy held out her hand out for Miranda to shake.

Miranda stared at her for a moment before shaking her hand.

Tracy nodded slightly and said, "I can't wait to work with you."

Miranda pulled her hand away. "Where did you study?"

Miranda was supposed to seem kind and a little bit disinterested but today, as she looked at Tracy, she couldn't bring up one ounce of kindness.

Miranda was just having a bad day.

Tracy took a deep breath and smiled. "UPenn."

Miranda raised her eyebrows. "Ivy League?"

Tracy nodded excitedly.

Scott smiled. "Damn girl! You didn't tell me any of that!"

Tracy shrugged as if it was no big deal.

Miranda sighed. "You can go Scott. I'll talk to Tracy." She spoke to Scott but her gaze never left Tracy.

Miranda leaned slightly forward. "Why did you want to intern at this hospital?"
