    Author Notes:

    Melvin closed the conference room door and followed Marva to his office where a call was holding from Mrs. Wilson the principal of his daughter’s private school.

    Melvin closed the conference room door and followed Marva to his office where a call was holding from Mrs. Wilson the principal of his daughter’s private school. Taking a seat at his desk the estranged father was slightly annoyed to be pulled out of the meeting for that. He’d asked if Marva couldn’t have taken a message, but she explained that the woman on line was insistent that she had to speak to him immediately. Even though Mrs. Wilson would not divulge what the call was about, both Marva and Melvin knew that if the school was calling it was only because Maxine could not be reached. It was barely ten o’clock in the morning; where could she be. What was the emergency. Was Elizabeth hurt? He hadn’t seen his daughter in weeks and whenever they did have visitation it was very awkward as he hardly knew what to do with her. He would invariably cut the time short with some work excuse. He loved the child there was no doubt, but he just didn’t know how to be a father and wasn’t particularly inclined to make the effort.

    ***

    “Mr. Porter. I’m afraid we have some bad news.” Mrs. Wilson said without preamble as soon as she heard his voice on the line.

    “Did something happen to my daughter?” Melvin asked fearing he’d been called to take care of a sick or injured nine-year old.

    “No. Mr. Porter. Elizabeth is fine. What I mean is … she’s not hurt but something has happened. I need your permission to allow her to be released from school to go with a friend of her mother’s.”

    “I don’t understand. Why does she need to leave school? Who is this friend? Where is her mother?” Melvin fired off questions; impatience evident in his tone.

    “That’s just it, Mr. Porter. Her mother is in the hospital. There is an Evelyn Sanders here asking to take her, but she’s not on our list of caretakers for Elizabeth. I either need your permission or you’ll have to come down here yourself to pick up your daughter. It’s a precautionary measure to protect our children. You understand of course.”

    “Yes, of course. Did she say what happened to my wife? Was there an accident, why is she in the hospital?”

    1. Love when n Author takes the reader back in time because it always feels like stepping into some else skin reminding myself how swiftly lives can be re-routed to flow on a different path.

      Smooth chapter Bat

      • DumplinT – thank you. You are so right how one moment or one decision can change the entire course of your life. I appreciate you reading and commenting.

      • Zhenya, thank you for reading and commenting. Totally agree, Melvin was very irresponsible. He shouldn’t have been with her in the first place, but unprotected sex with anyone outside of a committed relationship is taking a chance.

      • SassyGran – thank you. Happy Easter to you too.

        I know it’s hard to like Melvin given his past behaviors but he is repentant and hopefully we will see some good deeds and selfless acts before he leaves us. Thanks for loyally reading and commenting.

    4. Hey Bat,

      My apologize for commenting so late. Have this week night shifts.

      Like father like daughter, both could not cope with the stress and pressure and fell prey to someone with whom they could temporarily escape. Only Melvin was so stupid to get a STD and lost his manhood and couldn’t give Maxine what she so much wanted, a second child.

      Both betrayed the woman they see as their love of their lives, but Bette fought hard and long to prove to Tina that she is worth the second chance and i am very happy that Tina is willing to work it out so they can be a family.

      Great chapter!

      • Bibi28, I just posted this last night so you are not late. Thank you for your comment as you summed it up perfectly.

        Bette will see the parallels in their behavior and their lack of coping skills and hopefully learn a lesson that escaping your troubles in the arms of another is destructive not only to relationships but to lives. She is fortunate that Tina is giving her a second chance.

        I didn’t write it into this story, but if you recall on the show after Bette cheated with Candace she also had a one-night stand that she picked up in a bar when she was in NY. I decided to use a similar scenario for Melvin.

        Thanks again for your insight and for loyally reading and commenting. Hope the night shift isn’t too hard on you.

    5. This was a fantastic chapter. Never would I have guessed the reason for the demise of his marriage to Maxine. He was a very weak man and an idiot to have unprotected sex. Can not blame Maxine at all for leaving him, she did the only thing she could given the circumstances, poor thing. Just hate that she had to be written out so soon because Bette needed her so much. You have done miraculous work writing this story and explaining everything the show did not and glossed over her childhood. Thanks for making this all clear.
