Ouch. 😬

Guess mom doesn’t know about everything that happened

I kinda wish I knew who told Lucy's mom exactly what happened between her and Mike. Did Lucy open up about it herself while hospitalized, did she keep it vague, or did she actually tell her family everything? Does Lucy's mom think Mike was hurting her emotionally for no reason or does she know the full story of Lucy physically hurting Mike prior ? Or is Lucy's mom still mostly in the dark and just trying to protect her daughter from the one solid thing she gleaned out of Lucy's avoidant confessions. Either way, Lucy wont be living this down with her mom for a while.

PAM

Some people are thinking that she doesn’t know what’s going on exactly, only that Mike is involved.

GarryB

Oof indeed.

Lucy's Mom: Good Lucy.... Good... Let the hate flow through you... Seriously though, while Lucy's Mom's feelings are understandable, the last thing that Mike needs is another person kicking him while he's dow- ... Er... barely breathing...

AlienSpawn

Guess the mom is in the dark, she’s just like Augustus going off 25 percent of the real story or just doesn’t care.

Question now is if Lucy's mom only heard Lucy's version of the story or if being awefull people just runs in the family.

SomeColourMage

nobody's ever told her anything. Lucy constantly refuses to talk and Augustus has been defying requests to let her actually help her basically all Carol knows is that Lucy had been hitting Mike (she didn't approve), they probably had a fight (Jordan was guessing, but also that was before December), then the attempt happened and Lucy hates Mike now. she can't even tell that the fight was the cause, because when pressed Lucy blew up at her over the plan to have her move away

Apri

"Good" understandable but still brutal coming from this sweet lady… nice.

Mandy Seley

She's Lucy's Mom, her job isn't to know all the details and be a fair impartial judge on who was right or wrong - her job is to be on Lucy's side and support/protect her. She doesn't need the whole story to know that Lucy and Mike are NOT on good terms anymore, and to be glad that Lucy's spending time away from him and with other friends instead.

Anubis

Wondering if she's angry at Mike or at her mom for mentioning Mike since it seems that she noticed somethings wrong with Mike earlier in the chapter.

SCD

Uh-oh.

PAM

Probably both. And as for her feelings about Mike, also both. I think she’s forcing herself to focus on her anger every time she feels concerned, because she’s worried that if she lets herself feel for Mike, she’ll reach out to him and just get hurt again.

Lily Hoyda

am i the only one reading ambiguity and conflict in lucy's mom's words here? i've had this exact conversation with my loving but nosy mom-- she wants to make sure lucy's alright, but is feeling forlorn at the fact mike CAN'T be a part of her life anymore, for her own health. even if the "good" is an angry one, it's out of protection for her daughter, who almost took her own life. i don't read that as 'brutal' or cold, but more like resigned and upset.

Lily Hoyda

also the readers who seem to think her mom is somehow bad or mistaken or in the wrong for being against Lucy seeing Mike right now... what's the alternative you imagine should happen, that her mom encourages her to make up with him? that she calls Mike and apologizes for Lucy being so unreasonable? seriously what are you expecting this situation SHOULD be

mobsterseeker

Do people seriously think Lucy's mom is evil or assume she's been lied to or misled for thinking it's good those two aren't hanging out anymore?

esinololly

Oh damn, who are the readers out here thinking she's wrong!? Poor woman is doing her best with what little info anyone is affording her :'D

American Psycho

You can't blame Carol for being angry with Mike, regardless of how much of the whole picture she knows. She will always pick Lucy over Mike, Lucy is her baby, and as far as she is concerned Mike had a big part in Lucy hurting herself.

Rocky Wolfknight

The mother has every right to feel for her daughter and what she's been through But I also think she needs to know Lucy and August aren't being completely honest or saints in this situation either. Cause no matter what, karma doesn't discriminate

Kirk Findlay

I'm gonna guess mom either doesn't think they'll make up, doesn't want them to, or maybe a bit of both. A bit of "I wish they could, but if it can't then it has to be that way" kind of energy.
