This is so sad
Luke's only break is his bike club. I'm glad his teacher stood up for him.
Light in the tunnel?
Luke seems to have found a new ally, who has immediately keyed into there being a situation (and that his mother is not the one to talk to about it). Oh, and this trade show won't distract Fred forever.
Brat princess is finally getting hers
She going too far and Alice is finally beginning to see her faults. Fred will be home soon hopefully he figures our what is really going on in his home and leaves Alice and Lori behind forever taking Luke with him away from those evil women

Hope, but very dim
I really love redemption stories... I mean, REALLY enjoy them. They're without a doubt my favorite form of fiction. However, at this point, I don't even care if Lori or Alice find it within themselves to see the horrible things that they have done to Luke... I just want them to suffer... badly... for a really long time. I know I should want better for them, but at this point I just don't. Alice needs to feel the loneliness and misery she has inflicted on her son. The only justice I see for her is being sued for divorce and loosing custody of both children to her much more responsible ex-husband. That way she can look at the ruins of her life and know a slice of what she put Luke through.
Justice for Lori would be in the form of a 'board of education' being applied to her 'seat of knowledge' until she gets it through her selfish head that the world does not revolve around her, that nobody is above anyone else, and that when you tear someone down you aren't making yourself look good by comparison... you're just showing everyone that you can't be trusted. I have hope for her... otherwise she's in for a very rude wake up call one day when she tries to tear down the wrong person and gets her head handed to her.
Once again, hard reading... but loving the build up to what I hope will be a worthwhile ending! Kudos!
Teacher may be the one to blow the whistle
That teacher may be the only one to blow the abuse Luke is suffering wide open. She's already got part of Lori's number and it may not be long before she gets the rest of her number.
When she sees her call to Alice do no good she will call Fred and reveal everything Lori has been doing. When this happens, if it happens, Fred will go nuts and the roof will cave in on Alice and Lori.
Or, if that teacher still sees Lori continuing her abuse of Luke, she will call CPS and report the abuse she's been seeing, noting talking with the parents have done no good.
One other thing could happen if/when he learns the whole truth. He has Luke pack a suitcase as he does and then Fred gives Alice a choice, divorce or counseling for her and Lori. He then gives her the phone number where he can be reached, telling her to call him when she's made her decision. And if she chooses counseling, the number of that office so he can verify the appointment.
Others have feelings too.
I was a strange child,
so much like Luke except I wanted to wear the dresses. But to this day, I cannot understand how people can be like Alice and her clone of a daughter.
