If it makes any difference, I think the only reason he hasn't tried to talk to you is he's scared and doesn't know how. You know Lloyd, he's not good with heavy conversations and conflict.

[For all that he was Randall Flagg's right hand man, Lloyd is not a hard or cruel man. He has the heart of a loyal dog, but his nature isn't violent or uncaring. Nadine can't entirely blame him for not knowing how to approach this situation.

But she also can't stand here and say Julie doesn't have a right to be mad. It's different between Julie and Lloyd and Nadine can't say one way or another if Julie's is justified. Maybe it is. But she knows Lloyd is hurting, too, and both of them are important to her.]

I'll admit, I don't really understand the relationship you two have, and I'm not going to tell you that I think you should talk to him or forgive him, I can't say that, I don't know if you should or not. That's between you two. But I do know he cares about you, and there was no malice in his choice, and he hasn't been doing too good this last month.

[It isn't as if Lloyd were off galivanting and ignoring what had happened.]
