Los Angeles had just seen a snowfall a few days ago, and the streets outside the film crew were a vast expanse of shimmering white, untouched by shovels.
Norris Moore, careful in her snow boots, followed closely behind Rufus Swallow on their way to a nearby coffee shop to have something warm.
The man walking beside her tall and distinguished, this was the city of stunning men and women of the film industry. Yet Rufus Swallow still drew countless gazes.
Just like the exceptionally good-looking Miller Family siblings, the Swallow Family men and women each had their own unique charisma and flavor that made one lament the unfairness of nature.
Norris ordered a cappuccino and got a Blue Mountain for Rufus. This coffee shop was the closest one around, and with the cold weather and slippery roads, no one wanted to drive out for a bite. The coffee shop was bustling and crowded, filled mostly with actors shooting in the area.
