“I ain’t worried…” Jeo wiped away another tear. “Hannah, once you’re all healed up, come home with us. You don’t need to bust your hump making movies for money anymore. The cash your mom saved for you, if you’re careful with it, can last you a lifetime in our little town.”

Hannah always knew, of all her family members, her dad was the least keen on her making movies.

Thanks to Steven stepping in, no one dared ask her to film kissing or bed scenes, or any of that real stuff. She always used a body double, but her dad didn’t know that, and neither did the folks back home. So, there was always a buzz in town, and people gossiping behind her parents’ backs.

Back then, she thought her dad was worried she was losing face by making movies. She said she wanted to do it for a few more years to keep making more money.

After she refused, her dad didn’t bring it up again. Every phone call was about encouraging her to work hard and not to worry about other things. Other things being the baseless rumors and gossip back home.

Her dad was a gentle soul, and whenever people talked about her, he’d simply tell them that his girl was a serious actress, not someone who’d do anything disgraceful.
