Susan, I really liked this part!!
Especially:
“I need your help. I didn’t really know where else to turn.” She gave half a laugh and said, almost to herself, “Funny. There was a time when I could have thought my own way out of this problem.”
“Well, I’ve learned over the years that it’s always good to rely on your friends.” Lois put a sympathetic smile on her face.
“Yeah, sure. I relied on my friends three years ago and look what happened.”
“Hey, it all worked out in the end.” Lois observed the question in Aymee’s face. “How much do you remember from all of that?”
“We all remember things.” Aymee glanced at Clark and caught his eyes. “Secrets we probably shouldn’t know.”
Lois could almost feel the nervous energy flash through her husband. The subject of the Smart Kids hadn’t come up since Lois had learned about Clark’s other identity; clearly, something had happened between Superman and the children in their shared history. And she knew the one thing that always put him on edge.
Great moments there
