Chapter Two
About half an hour later, Lois pulled into the Kent's driveway. She decided she would speak to Mrs. Kent, before she went to talk to Clark. She knocked on the kitchen door of the farmhouse. It was not long until Martha Kent opened the door to let Lois come in. Lois could not help smiling, as the older woman hugged her.
"He still has not come out of hiding?"
"No, Jonathan and I are getting worried. He has been up there ever since Alicia's funeral. He will not talk to anyone. He has not eaten in three days. I do not even know if he has slept. I am hoping you can get through to him, Lois."
"I will not make any promises, Mrs. K. However, I will try to bring Smallville back to the land of the living."
"Thank you, Lois."
"Do you want me to take something to eat with me? He might eat, once I get him to talk to me."
"Sure, just give me a minute, okay?"
Martha got a tray, and loaded it with Clark's favorite snacks. For a male, he actually ate pretty healthy, even if it was just a snack.
"Wish me luck."
"All the luck in the galaxy."
Lois could not help, but to chuckle. She had no way of knowing how accurate Martha Kent's words were. She hoped that Clark would not give her too hard of a time. After all, she was doing this out of the kindness of her heart, and she would really be pissed if he caused her to let Mr. and Mrs. Kent down.
