As Kit entered the queue for valet parking, Melvin asked if she’d spoken to Bette to let her know they were coming tonight.
“Yeah, I called her a little while ago. She was on her way to pick up Tina.”
“How did she take it. Is she still mad at me?”
“She doesn’t trust your motives Daddy.”
“Well I suppose I deserve that.”
“I told her she had nothing to worry about, but I have to say I’m not sure of your motives either. I trust you won’t say or do anything to hurt or embarrass them tonight but why exactly is it so important for you to attend?”
“I don’t have any hidden agenda Katy. I just want to get to know the woman that has my daughter’s heart. What better way to observe someone’s character than when they are being honored. You have my word. I won’t make a scene. If either of them is upset by my presence here, I will leave immediately.”
Both car doors opened simultaneously. One valet helped Melvin out of the car, while the other gave a hand to Kit. She put away the claim check ticket in her evening bag, then took her father’s arm to be escorted through the entrance.
They had barely made it into the foyer, when Bette walked up to them. Her sister was show-stopping gorgeous on her worst day, but when she went all out as she’d done tonight she was absolutely ravishing. However what Kit saw wasn’t her external beauty, it was an inner glow. Bette Porter was beaming, but the same could be said of Kit Porter. Melvin stood back as his daughter’s greeted each other affectionately and complimented their respective gowns. Bette then turned to her father, and gave him warm hug and kiss on the cheek. “Hi Daddy”.
“Hi Baby” he responded returning the hug. He felt his daughter stiffen slightly in his embrace when hearing the term of endearment that he’d used when she was a little girl. It was at a time when her parents were happy, before they separated; when there was real joy in the family. He wanted his baby girl back, but first he had to reconcile with the angry woman that had stormed out of the Planet that morning. He didn’t expect it to be easy but like Kit, Bette would soon realize that she was no longer being confronted by the callous, overbearing monster that fueled that anger. He wanted to show her the heart of the man he’d once been.

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
