Jessica

Its been a month now.
Sara hasn't been in her trailer since she left the next morning after the... incident.
She's completely blocked my number.
And she asked Shonda to cut all scenes with her and I in them.
She's completely blocked me out.
Her schedule for set is at night, mines during the day.
The sad thing about this is that I really think I do love her. And I cut out Andrew, he's gone now. I get the kids every other holiday. That's all. But I'm okay with that. My kids just stressed me out and - and all I wanted was Sara.
It was about nine one night after I had shot my scene. I was in my trailer, I haven't left it the last month. Sara left behind some clothes from one night and there are so many memories here.
I can't bring myself to leave.
I heard a knock at my trailer door.
"Hello?" I ask, opening the door.
It was Shonda.
Oh man.
Shonda never approaches us.
She sits in her office and writes.
Then someone else directs us.
We never talk.
You know something is up when SHONDA RHIMES confronts you.
"Jessica." She says.
"Um - yeah - uh - uhm -"
"Aren't you going to invite me in?" She asks.
Still wondering was SHONDA was doing outside, I wordlessly just step aside, allowing her in.
"Thank you." She says, sitting down at the kitchen.
"Uh - um - coffee?" I ask.
"Oh. No. I'm okay, thanks. This won't take long." She says. "Jessica. Sara is falling apart. She's not eating that much anymore. At set you know how we always have dinner set out for the cast... she doesn't eat. And she snaps. If anyone corrects her for anything. She's irritable. And she refuses to work during the day. She also asked me to crop out any Calzona scenes. Even if they're just working on a case. She doesn't wear that much makeup anymore - and she's lost so much weight. It's been happening for a month. Now, I always put my actors before anything else. So I've taken you out of her life completely. But the fans are suffering. The show is suffering from this. I -"
I clear my throat. "Shonda she won't speak to me."
Shonda chuckles. "Yeah. Well you need to make her listen. And you need to fix it. It's no longer about you or the show. I don't care about that. But Sara... she's dying. On the inside out. Fix it Jess."
And with that, she stood up. Pushed in her chair. Smiled shortly at me. Grabbed her purse. And walked out.
Slamming the door behind her.
