Wanda at the table reading James Michener's novel Hawaii and chasing cornbread with milk. Antique hutch appointed accordingly. Phone at hand near a few ripe bananas in a wooden bowl. She is startled when her PHONE RINGTONES the piano beginning of the Marcia Ball song, That's Enough of that Stuff. She smiles shakes her head, marks page and closes book, picks up to RUTH FACETIMING.
WANDA: I was about to finish my chapter and Facetime you.
