The ability to heal quickly has always been a double-edged sword. On the one hand, he heals quickly. On the other hand, it's impossible to explain.

I'm a little disappointed. I had hoped that, as Superman's physician, Dr. Klein might have spotted some really suspicious similarities between Superman and Clark.

Oh well! I hope that Lois will put two and two together herself. Why is Clark healing so fast? Lois saw his wound when it was new. You have shown us some sweet scenes where Lois and Clark have been not all that far away from making love. I'm not going to try to persuade you to take your story into any particular direction in that department , but I might point out that it would be possible for Lois and Clark to have a not-too-heavy making-out session that might reveal to Lois that Clark has indeed healed more quickly than what is humanly possible. Therefore, he has to be Superman himself, and therefore Superman can't be dead! For that matter, it may not even be necessary for them to make out for Lois to make that connection, considering what Clark told her at the end of this part:

You told me that your story resembled the Bible somehow, and I have been wracking my brains to figure out how. So let me suggest this, then:

Lois is hardly an unbelieving Thomas (or maybe some people would insist that she is?) but if she touches Clark's side, like Thomas touched Jesus' side, then maybe she can come to some conclusions?

I can't believe that Dr. Klein missed the similarities between Clark Kent and his only patient.

Seems like Lois isn't the only one who can't see the forest for the trees.

Well, Ann, I was talking about Cain and Abel.

It makes me a little sad that you don't seem to like my story. Obviously it wasn't such a good idea to bring Dr. Klein back, though there were times when people asked me to do it.

Anyway, it's too late to change the story and I know that I made at least Tahu happy.

I don't see how make-out sessions would work in this context though. I cannot imagine that Clark - faced with the accusations and still believing in his being guilty could make out with Lois under the circumstances. That wouldn't be like Clark and I know that if I would write such things, then you'd point out how it wasn't like Lois or Clark to stop investigating on order to make love.

You were right, Barbara, this was different. Doc Klein seemed a bit OOC to me. Never pegged him for one who would get annoyed like that But I can see how he wouldn't recognize Clark as Superman. At least in this easily annoyed version of Doc Klein.

PS: And it's great to see you're posting this so frequently.

No, no, you misunderstand me! I like your story a lot! I just hoped that Dr. Klein would put and two together. But I will very much appreciate it if Lois figures out Clark's Superman identity for herself.

I do like your story very much and look forward to the next chapter!

Ann

Dr. Klein never noticed in the serie although he and Clark met frequently. He is annoyed with the situation and Superman is believed dead who would think about Clark being Superman in this situation? Lois on the other hand is on an emotional rollercoaster. She got Clark back after believing he left her, Clark lost his memory and Superman is dead. She never noticed it when it hit her on the head. Why should she now? She has to come clean with her feelings about Superman's death and her feelings for Clark, I think it is enough to deal with.

Bakasi I love your story, you know I do and I am so proud that you've finished it.
