Poor Clark. Poor confused Clark. I understand why Lois is delaying, but she really is sending some very mixed messages and is, I think, doing them both a disservice.
Then again, if she had told him everything, the story would be several parts shorter and your readers wouldn't have as much of a ride to enjoy along the way.
I don't suppose you'd give us an Easter present of dropping an extra part today? No? I didn't think so, but it was worth asking.
Joy,
Lynn
