Martha Mae leaned heavily on Lily, even though she was the youngest of her nine children. Being the sole supporter of the family, Martha Mae didn't think she had a choice as she intended to keep her family together no matter the cost. Lily's saving grace was her friend Tommy and his wonderful mother. Lily had always believed she would grow up and marry Tommy but things happened to her in her early teens to make her feel she was no longer good enough to be in Tommy's family. Lily turned to drugs and alcohol to help her cope with her tormented mind and hardships. Lily finally escaped Martha Mae's heavy load by marrying Jed. Less than a year later she gave birth to Jeddah. For a while Jeddah was enough to keep her occupied and sober but life has a way of testing all of us and Lily was no exception. As her closest brother Leon lay in ICU struggling for his life Tommy was thrown back into Lily's life. She had almost forgotten the young girl she use to be and how she had loved him, he hadn't forgotten and he was still very much in love with her. What would she do? Would she forfeit her marriage and jeopardize Jeddah's happiness? Would she walk away from Tommy never knowing what could've been, should've been? As she looks back over her life, did she make the right decision or will she always live with regret? Doesn't Lily resemble all of us to some degree?
