Missing Lois - TOC A taste of Chapter 6, Part 6...
“Clark. Line two. Lois Lane,” Barry called from across the bullpen.
“Got to go, Chief. Lois is on the other line. I’ll check with her about the guards, all right.”
“Clark, just make sure those ladies are safe.”
“You know I will, Chief.” He hung up and picked up the other line. “Lois?”
“Clark?”
“Getting much work done?”
“I’ve been trying to reach you since last night. Where have you been?”
He swallowed. Bolivia? “I had to run some errands.”
“Can you come over, now? I need to talk with you.”
“Now?”
“Please?”
“Give me fifteen minutes, Lois.”
She laughed. “How about two?”
Did she know he was Superman? “Sure,” he said, slowly. “I can be there in two.” He grinned. She knew. What a weight off his shoulders.
Less than a minute later, Superman came in through the living room window. Lois was in the kitchen, making lunch and he came up behind her, placing his hands on her shoulders. “I’ve missed you,” he whispered.
Thank you all for your kind thoughts. I was able to get home this morning.
Going bonkers in the hospital with nothing to do but go WAY off tanget on GEM.
Please post feedback here. Thank you.
