Now that they were saved … she resolved to live her own life … not OL's.
Good for you, Lois! Second-guessing everything is just going to drive you crazy.
My betas kept saying this all along ... the number of comments they put every time Lois was trying to figure out what OL would do!!! I think my betas were trying to convince ME that I needed to stop writing Lois having these thoughts. I always intended that Lois would have this realisation eventually, though. They just needed to be patient and they'd see exactly what they were pushing for.
The idea that Lois had broken down and called the Kent farm just to hear his voice was both heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time...that she was so lonely, knowing he was out there but having to wait so long for him to come into her life. Sigh...but at least hearing his voice could firm up her resolve to wait for him, reassure her that he would be a part of her life eventually. And now that he's here, no, I don't think Lois can wait much longer...she's been waiting so long as it is.
She has. I don't think I would have coped as well as Lois, knowing that Clark Kent was my future, but having to wait sooooo very long.
oh wow, patience is a virtue, but this would kill me!
Oh yeah. She has waited a looooong time. And Lois is not usually known for her patience.
