Status Updates From How Much of These Hills Is ...

I don’t understand and I don’t want to understand

Oh Sam…
After all they’re been through I just want these two to have peace. I really hope they find it across the ocean, but I’m fearing that the language barrier and the cultural differences might be impossible for them to bridge

First of all Charles is disgusting, anna’s hardly any better. I don’t understundom how you can be that self absorbed, its like she Actually thinks of Lucy as some kind of pet.
I will say that I much prefer this version of Sam. The years away from their father has done him good, and I’m very happy he punched Charles.
And he’s planning on going back to China, and seems to actually want Lucy to come along

Well this was a Nice surprise. A five year time jump. Lucy got work in Sweetwater, Sam left to adventure. Lucy befriended a rich girl named Anna. Sam, now 16, is back. Lucy is 17.
Before the time jump Lucy was craving the stability of the town, now I think she craves the freedom of the wild again. Sam wouldn’t say no if she asked to travel with him right?
And they still need to find their mom

Their mother is still alive?? I wasn’t expecting that. She must’ve gone to teacher leigh and then further away. They would’ve found her if she was still in the same town as them.
Their father saying that they turned out alright actually makes me so angry. 1. They’re not. At all. 2. If they were it would be despite him not thanks to. He literally abused and terrorized them, especially Lucy, and for what??
