The Kennard-Porters
“I wasn’t sure. He said he might but I left it completely up to when he was ready.” Melvin didn’t want to get into this with Kit right now.
“Is that why you didn’t tell me that you spoke to him this morning? Daddy you had my son on the phone when I walked back into my office and you didn’t say anything?”
“Katy, please don’t be angry with me. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to get your hopes up in case he didn’t …
“Daddy, this is bullshit. This whole charade of him calling me just because Melvin says it’s all right. It’s bullshit.”
“I’m sorry you feel that way, but he’s a grown man. It had to be his decision.”
“Yeah, thanks to you.” Kit mumbled. Melvin, let it slide as he knew Kit was still processing so much of what he’d revealed to her that day.
“So, is he coming to see you?” Melvin asked hoping that David had decided to make the first move.
“Yeah. Day after tomorrow after his interviews. He wants me to meet him at his hotel at 6:00pm. Daddy I’m so scared. I don’t want to fuck this up.”
Melvin snickered at Kit using the ‘F’ word. I wasn’t the first time he’d heard it today but at least this time it wasn’t geared towards him. They had certainly made progress towards a full reconciliation. “How could you? You’re his mother.”
“Being a mother is more than just giving birth Daddy. I’m a total stranger to my own child.”
“You and I were practically strangers two days ago Katy. I know it’s not the same thing losing a child at birth and what happened between us, but the bond is never really broken. You’ll get to know him, and he’ll get to know you. He wants to be a part of your life and you can be a part of his.”
Kit reached out and squeezed her father’s forearm. “Will you come with me? I don’t think I would even recognize him.”
“Oh, you’ll recognize him. He’s a Porter, just as handsome as can be but I’m happy to go with you.”
Melvin put his right hand over Kit’s hand that still rested on his left arm, and graced her with his most winning Porter smile.

There is a God! Thank you so, so much for the great post! I knew Tina would be shocked when she heard Melvin call her Tina! Now, Helena will have to deal with Melvin. I love it! Now, I can go to sleep happy and a smile on my face. When can we expect another post? I know enjoy this one for now. Appreciate thanks so much again. PPS
cellphone48 you’re such an inspiration. Thank you. I don’t want you missing sleep waiting for the next chapter as I recall you have a very busy sometimes crazy work schedule. I am working on the next chapter, just don’t know when or how it will go. I will post as soon as I have something I can live with.
Excellent chapter! It made me very happy.
Helena better watch out. The Porters don’t let mess with them.
It is still somewhat strange to see Melvin as a nice man, but i am glad that he is doing his best to show Bette, Kit and Tina that he is a changed man.
You are never to old to change and grow.
Thanks for the update!
Thank you Bibi28. You are correct in that it is somewhat strange to see Melvin as a nice man. He was a gruff character on the show but I think we saw glimpses of a softer side of him when he was on his death bed. It might have been the medication or facing his mortality but I think had he survived the cancer he could have become the character I am writing in this story. I won’t make him too sugary sweet. I remember when Helena came back after season 2 and it appeared that it was a totally different character played by the same actress. Her transformation was totally unrealistic to me. Hopefully I can pull it off with Melvin.
Wonderful chapter! Thanks
Thank you wkm. You are such a great supporter of writers on this site. Really appreciate you.
Happy Day!!! Yay Melvin, go on with your bad self. Hopefully helena will get a chance to feel Melvins’ wrath and be permanently dismissed by him. Can’t wait to read that. Helena can be a superlative bitch and she does need to be taken down all the way to the ground. I really do hope in this story that Melvin knows Peggy very well and maybe the two of them can give helena what for, she deserves it. Then let Bette wipe the floor with her. Helena just needs a good ass whipping and I think Bette and Kit can give her a good one. I’m very proud of Melvin. Can you just imagine three Porters and Kennard as a united front against hel-bitch. What a glorious thought. Great chapter. Thanks for posting.
BAT!! I have missed your stories so much!! I haven’t been on in a good while and I am excited to see nothing has changed. Your storytelling has always captivated me. I just love what you’re doing with this story and I hope there are many more chapters to this. It seems Helena is up to no good now that she’s be ousted as Tina’s puppeteer.
Wow, so good to hear from you OliviaKelly. What a nice surprise to have you back. Glad you are enjoying the story. It’s been on my mind for a while to write. I know where I want to take it, but just taking a bit of time to get there. Thank you for commenting. Hope you will stick around for a while.
I will definitely stick around. Life has been chaotic and I just need to escape a little. Take your time! I know you’ll come up with some good ideas, you always do :)
Hi BAT,
Life’s been catching up with me too so I can understand a slight delay on posting, still can’t resist the usual – PPS !!
Must say I do like the ‘nicer’ Melvin and am dying to see how your Helena turns out.
Nice to have you writing again and look forward to more.
When will we get another post on this amazing story? Missing you! PPS
