Bette and Kit
“Kit wait … why in the world would you and Daddy want to come tonight?”
“Well you know I’m up for anything to support our girl, but it was Daddy’s idea.”
“I swear Kit, if he’s coming here tonight to say or do anything to embarrass me or my wife …”
“It’s nothing like that Bette. I think we’ve had a breakthrough. That hard-hearted stubborn old man broke down and cried in my arms this morning. He was so contrite, and you know what triggered it?”
“I can’t imagine, but you did say it was a miraculous day.” Bette’s voice was dripping with sarcasm.
“He saw the picture of Tina in that magazine article. He knows she’s pregnant with your baby. I’m sorry baby girl I didn’t mean to get all up in your business but we talked about your situation.”
“My situation?” Bette was really getting pissed.
“Listen baby girl. Don’t get all bent out of shape. Remember this is Tina’s night and I wouldn’t do anything to mess that up. Daddy will behave or I won’t let him near her. I promise. But you need to promise me too that you won’t make scene. Just give him a chance.”
Bette finally calmed down. The last thing she wanted was to disappoint Tina tonight. She had to trust that Kit knew what she was doing.
“OK Kit. I trust you … and Kit I’m glad about David. I can’t wait to meet him.”
“Me too baby sis. I’ll see you soon.”
***
Bette hung up with her sister just as she was pulling into Tina’s driveway. She unhooked the earpiece and shook her head in disbelief. If she didn’t know that Kit was clean, she would swear the woman was drunk or hallucinating when she’d said that Melvin broke down and cried in her arms, much less that his emotional breakdown was caused by learning about Tina’s pregnancy. He’d totally dismissed the notion of Bette and Tina giving him a grand-child the first time she got pregnant, and now he was going out of his way to see them tonight. And how was it that David just called Kit out of the blue after 30 years. It certainly had been a miraculous day for Kit but Bette’s hadn’t turned out so bad either. She’d spent the entire day with Tina, and now she would have part of the night. Even if Helena was there, Bette would still have the pleasure of walking in together and having Tina on her arm. Speaking of which if she spent much more time in her car sitting in the driveway, they would be late.

Miracles do happen Bette, believe in it.
It is good to see Melvin is trying to make amends with both his daughters and Tina.
And David reaching out to Kit, wonderful to see that happen. Kit deserve happiness.
Looking forward to see how Helena is going to react when she will be ditched from Tina’s table and life.
A fantastic update! Thank you!
Thanks for the update! You’ve selected one of my favorite characters, Kit. I liked your story very much! I’ve got to bring Kit into my next tale so, I am delighted read her as you’ve her in this situation. One that’s critical to her character.
Personally, I’m fascinated by Helena. I may be the only one, but the broken parts of Helena I look forward to exploring one day.
Good job!

Hi BAT:
Very nice chapter, long time I haven’t read your wonderful writing; I just updated myself with this new story; I like this one very much; very promising, refreshing and hopefulness.
Here, there is another version of Melvin, as a reasonable man, learning from his mistakes, open-minded and committed to mending fences, Kit is also an inspirational character in this story, she fought her demons and addictions and her not only survived but thrived.
I like Tina-Bette interaction in this chapter, they both have hurt each other, but their love is still there, the emotional pain have made them more mature and they may want to give their relationship another try, hopefully, is not only because they are waiting for a baby, but mainly for the love they have for each other.
Thank you for this precious story, I’ll wait for your next post, with a bit of luck, soon.

Great chapter. Have already written a comment but it disappeared for some reason and don’t think I can redo it. The same thing happened a couple wks ago in another story and it was in the trash on your authors page. I had not quite completed a thought when it vanished. Maybe that’s where it is this time. At any rate this was a good chapter, enjoyed it. Thanks for posting.
