After having problems in your marriage because you found your husband cheating on you, you went to drown your sorrows in your friend Lou. She was always there for you and you were always there for her
When she came out as a lesbian, you were there, when she needed money to open her club, you were there and now, you needed her and she was the embrace that would comfort you
You, 3 months pregnant, were devastated, still emotionally reeling from your ex-husband's betrayal after signing the divorce papers, on the couch in Lou's penthouse. She was cooking for you in the kitchen, helping you, comforting you, giving you cuddles. She comes back after a while, food still cooking on the stove and sits down next to you
"I promise you dont need him, I'll take care of you, take care of your kid, I promise that that kid I'll grow up with everything"
