Original Commentary

Of course, the job situation complicates things even further. And yes, Kimberly waited a bit before heading back to Lola's. Same day, just a few hours later from their first conversation. Lola has a lot of faith in Brisbane, and in the relationship - Terrence

Modern Commentary
Lola knows a little about Kimberly's family drama. Not the full story, but she knows the basics from Kimberly venting.

But as you can tell from the third panel, she's here to give Kimberly encouragement. She's not here to give a blunt and honest assessment. That's not what the situation calls for.

Especially at 2 AM or so.

Hope for the best for the future, believe in the good of others, and figure out what you'll do if that doesn't happen. - Terrence
