“I’ve been …..seeing Clark,” Lois said slowly.
She was ready for the fireworks. The lectures and the disapproval tones. What she wasn’t prepared for was this. “Good for you,”
“What?” Lois asked, uncertainly.
“I said, ‘good for you,’” Ellen repeated. “You’re friends. If it works out ….and I’m not saying it won’t….it’ll make the relationship stronger.”
“Who are you and what have you done with my mother?” Lois asked, surprised.
“What? I can’t be happy for my daughter?” Ellen asked.
Ellen approves? No wonder Lois is confused! Maybe Ellen married Sam too quickly, without getting to know him first. Falling for a friend usually means that you know something about the other person (something that you like, or you wouldn't be friends in the first place).
