David lays the sign and the flowers at Bette’s feet and turns and walks away. Bette could see the tears in his eyes, something that would never have happened if he was still living his life in the shadow of Melvin Porter. Tina looks from David to the flowers to Bette and back to David and back to Bette.
Bette: David stop.
David turns and his tears have released and are running down his cheek. Bette hands Angelica to Tina and goes to David.
David: I thought I was being a big man a strong man holding my ground. Instead I was being an ass and a bully. I’m so sorry Aunt Bette. I hope someday you can forgive me.
Bette: I have never been more hurt in all my life. To know that my own flesh and blood not only despised me and what I stood for, but would stab me in the back and wish harm on my daughter. That child has been my child since before she could breathe on her own. She will be my child even after I take my last breath. No one will ever come between me and my child. Not you and now not the state of New York. There is no one more important to me than my child. If you ever cause my child harm it will be last act you commit. I am in this fancy suit and living a good life in New York, but you know I’m from Philly and we know how to scrap in Philly; don’t try me David Lamar Porter. I will rip you to shreds.
David: I will never harm that child. I’ve learned my lesson.
Bette: Now you are the only nephew I have and I won’t turn my back on you this time. But this is a one time deal. You better think before you act or open your mouth. I will not have my family disrespected. Not Tina, not Angelica. Have I made myself clear?
David: Crystal.
Bette: Good, now give me a hug.
David breaks out into his own Porter smile and Bette engulfs her nephew in a much needed hug. David needed that hug and Bette needed it as well. Tina looks on with tears in her eyes. She now gets what Bette said her months ago. “He’s my only nephew. I would never want to see Kit turn her back on Angelica.” If Bette was ready to move on with her nephew at least Tina could try to do the same. Bette Porter is fiercely protective of the ones she loves, but she is equally fiercely loyal. David is the benefitting from the latter.

Great chapters. I loved the way you let Bette and Tina forgive David. He understood what he had done and Bette making it clear she wont tolerate any disrespect ever again. It’s good to see that it is possible to grow together again. Maybe Tina will try with her family again too.
You had me weeping. NYer’s don’t weep, we are strong. But, this was worth it. AWESOME story. I agree with the readers, I LOVE this story. You have done a fantastic job with this. I’m ecstatic that Bette was finally recognized as Angie momma. I am also happy that Bette gave David another chance, BUT, warned him that she will rip him to shreds if he harms Angie in any way. CONGRATS to the Porter-Kennard’s. (Peggy, I am adoptable.) I cannot wait for them to arrive in my new hometown of Orlando. WooooooooHoooooooooo.
Absolutely. Utterly. Perfect. Thank you!
Fantastic chapter and it rights all the wrongs that were done in LA. Bette showed her big heart and love to David and Tina was indeed the bigger person by allowing David into their lives again. David had better follow Bette’s advice because I would not want to see what would happen to him if he forgets and disrespects Tina or the baby. And we have never been allowed to see Bette’s Philly side and I think we really don’t want to either. This is a wonderful story and I have loved every minute of it. However, I thought at one point that the gang was gonna be there, I was surprised that they weren’t. Also thought that maybe they would petition the court to add Porter to Angelicas’ last name. Ssurprised they did not. Fantastic chapter anyway. Thanks for posting all the chapters for us this weekend.

OMG what a lovely day, to have four chapters, perfect chapters at that and the last one being the best of the best so for for this story. This NY’er was weeping too, I think the rating should have been TA (tissue alert). I was crying those tears of joy before David, that just was Angie’s icing on the cake. Loved it. Thank you, Md aka Oma
What a great update. From the courtroom, to David, to the family portrait, etc. I so enjoy this fantastic story!
Great story. You had me in tears today.
Yahooo!! Bette’s Angelica’s legal parent. Love this story. Excellent. Thank you.
Finaly is Bette Angie’s legal mother. I’m happy. And it’s great that David came to his sense. What a wnderful story. I hope to read this lovley story a long time. Thank you
Oooooops where the 12th page’s gone? pmsl. Finally The state recognises Bette as Angie’s mother. So emotional this post is, in any way. Family and friends re so important, I am happy, David was mature enough to reckon its misjudgement, came to apologise and reconnected with the Kennard-Porter family. It has been a very eventful day and I loved every moment. Thank you. PPVS
WOW!!! What an Amazing chapter!!! I am glad Bette is Angie’s legal parent. Glad David was man enough to see what he had done was so wrong. Thank you PPS
And thus Angelica became Angelica Porter-Kennard.
Lwsho…props to the perfect way you handled bringing David and Bette back together…that was brilliant! And I still have yet another chapter to read…JACKPOT!
OMG…. this was absolutely one of the best chapters ever. Bette finally being Angies legal mom, and David, just WOW!!! I love this story!!!! Thanks for sharing your talent!!
