This is a very fascinating glimpse into the lives of, primarily, teenaged Lois and Clark. I very much like how you show things happening and changing, going back and forth: Lois and Lucy go to Smallville for a summer, become much happier, and go back home again. Clark dates Lana, she breaks up with him, she wants him back and he takes her back. (But he is not seriously in love with her, I think.) And Ellen Lane goes to a clinic and is treated for her alcoholism, things are fine in the Lane household, Sam comes back, Sam leaves Ellen again, and Ellen hits the bottle again. And Lois is seventeen, old enough to leave home and be treated as an adult in the eyes of the law, but she can't leave Lucy with Ellen.
I very much hope that Lois will leave home and that Lucy will be taken care of by the Kents!
Come back with more soon!
