you realize that she is still a teenager right? when she found out joel was trying to pass her off to tommy she ran off on some high risk shyt, so of course joel's not gonna tell her the truth about this because there's no telling what she would do, he just wants her to be safe
Word. She's just a teenager. You can't trust a 14 year old to make life or death decisions. However, I still don't believe that was the reasoning for Joel's decision not to tell her the truth. He just didn't want to lose another person he loved. Again though, can you really blame him? After losing every single person you've ever loved in gruesome fashion, would you have the strength to WILLINGLY let it happen again?
