Brenda's 1st Call To Sonny

This scene takes place a little after Brenda saved 
Sonny's life. Brenda is in her pajamas at her hotel 
room in Rochester. She sits down and flips through a 
book on the table, she looks yantsy. She goes and 
picks up the phone dials a number sits on the bed and 
leans against her pillows with a smile.

It is March 1994.

Brenda~ (Gets Sonny's answering machine, he is there but listening) Hi, if you're in the vacinity of my voice, I just wanted to call to tell you that I was thinking about you.

Sonny~ (picks up the phone) Hey!

Brenda~ (laughing) Are you screening your calls?

Sonny~ Better safe than sorry.

Brenda~ Which am I....safe or sorry?

Sonny~ (smiling) You're in a category all by yourself.

Brenda~ How are you feeling?

Sonny~ Why don't you get yourelf over here and find out for yourself?

Brenda~ I'd love to, but I can't.

Sonny~ Sure you can.

Brenda~ Only if I sprout wings, I'm not in Port Charles.

Sonny~ You don't feel very far.

Brenda~ I'm in Rochester.

Sonny~ What's in Rochester that's so important.

Brenda~ Well, you may find this hard to believe but I do have a life...or I did until I trashed my car last week.

Sonny~ Which raises another question, how did you get to Rochester without wheels?

Brenda~ Ummm...a friend with wheels, very nice ones in fact.

Sonny~ (slightly irratated) Oh! And this friend, is it someone I know?

Brenda~ You might, I'll be home tomorrow.

Sonny~ Have a safe trip.

Brenda~ Sonny? (no answer) Sonny?

Sonny~ I'm right here.

(both begin to smile)

Brenda~ You never answered how you're feeling.

Sonny~ Well, I'd feel alot better if you were here.

Brenda~ Really, I'm sorry I'm not.

Sonny~ Well, you're here a little bit. Don't forget it's your blood coarsing through my veins.

Brenda~ (laughing) The magic of modern medicine.

Sonny~ (smiling) How about just plain magic?

Brenda~ Is that really how it feels?

Sonny~ Well, it's kind of hard to describe. You're going to have to use your imagination.

Brenda~ Oh, I do. (in a soft whisper) I better go.

Sonny~ (softly) I'll see you when you get back.

Brenda~ Good night.

(Brenda closes her eyes and hangs up the phone)

Sonny~ I'm glad you called.
