I read this part yesterday and I'm still wondering... what made you think your cliffhanger was evil? I mean, it's not like you had Lois run over by a four by four right before entering the dinner and she could find out that Clark wasn't really cheating on her.
Evilness and all, I loved this. It's hard to see our favorite couple struggle, but I can deal with it as long as we're headed to a happy ending.
About the section with Keith reading different roles, it was a little hard to follow, but I don't know of any way tha'll make it easier.
Ther's one thing bothering me about this part. Why doesn't CK tell Lois about his meeting with Mayson? And why does he act like he has something to hide wehn she approaches them inside the dinner?
I've said it one too many times (or can a compliment actually be said too many times? :p ) but this is still great. I'm enjoying every bit of if and loof forward to each new part.
Keep it up,
Cris
