The Kansas sun was warm and bright as EDLois pulled her red Mustang convertible into one of the parking spaces in front of the Smallville Drug Store.

NNLois untied the scarf from her head.   “So this is where they commiserate?” she said looking at the store front.

ED nodded. “Yep. It’s kind of homey in there actually.” She let out a satisfied breath.

“And you’re not going to tell me why you called this get together . . .and in Smallville, no less,” said the questioning, sunglassed Lois looking very much like Natalie Wood.

“Nope. I’m waiting to tell everyone at once,” said EDLois as she adjusted her own sunglasses in the rear view mirror.

“Is it because you have dark hair now?”

“Patience, NN,” she said as her smile grew bigger and bigger.

“Patience? Since when did a Lois have patience?” said NN in exasperation. She took a deep breath and looked at ED’s huge grin.” “You’ve been doing that all morning, y’know.”

“What?”

“Smiling like the village idiot,” snickered NN.

Before ED could take offense, a red Lamborghini pulled in beside them. She let out a low whistle of appreciation. “Now that’s a car!”

The doors opened and out stepped THLois the driver, and MKLois the backstretching passenger. “Good morning, ladies,” said TH as she shut the door of her attention getting vehicle.

ED walked around her vintage muscle car to get a closer look. “How can you afford that on the Planet’s salary?”

“She can’t,” chuckled MK as she hugged ED.  

TH quickly walked past them and headed for the drug store door. “It was a gift!”

“A wedding gift,” added NN watching TH avoid them and grab the store’s door handle. 

“Who could afford to give THAT as a wedding present?” said ED incredulous still admiring the car’s sleek lines and awesome power.

“Think about it,” snickered MK as she started for the entrance.  “You’re a smart girl.”

ED stood for a second as NN left her side chortling. Her eyes got big and her jaw dropped. “Lex Luthor!   Lex Luthor gave you a Lamborgini as a . . .”

TH with the door handle in her white knuckled grasp. “I don’t like to talk about it,” she clipped as she banged the door open and went inside.

As the store bell clanged loudly, NN and MK turned to ED. “She doesn’t like to talk about it.” Their mischievous smirks made ED purse her lips not to laugh.

“Okay, I get it,” said the youngest Lois as she followed them into the store and placed her sunglasses on top of her head. 

“Something else to look forward to,” said MK as TH sat in a booth in the back.

The women all settled into the booth and started reading the one page menu enclosed in a plastic cover. 

“Love the dark hair. So how was your trip?” asked MK still perusing what the drug store soda counter offered.

“ED is an excellent driver,” said NNLois as put her sunglasses in her purse and snapped it shut.

“Unlike Clark,” snickered TH and MK trying not to burst with laughter.

“What do you mean?” asked EDLois trying to get someone’s attention at the counter.

“He’s a man who can fly, ED. He’s not the best driver in the world. Have you ever ridden with him in a vehicle?” asked TH leaning against the formica’d table top.

“No,” said ED shaking her head while still trying to make eye contract with a boy across the room. “Not when he was driving.”

“Well, count your blessings!” said MKLois leaning into the vinyl seat. 

Finally a boy came around the counter and made his way to their booth. “I did hear he laid a patch of rubber in the Smallville Medical Center parking lot because he was going too fast.”

“What episode was that?” asked NN as the young man appeared with a tray by her side.

“Nemesis, season six,” said ED looking up and giving the familiar high schooler a smile.

The boy placed glasses of water in front of all the women, but his eyes remained on EDLois. “Hey! You’ re Lois Lane, aren’t you?” He said with shock and admiration.
