The Kennard-Porters
The moment passed, and Bette pulled out of the embrace. They were both so emotionally charged that she thought it best to deflect away from their relationship. “This is a surprise.” Bette said facing her father and raising her brow towards her sister.
“I hope you don’t mind? I’m not here to spoil your evening. I just wanted to …”
“It’s OK Daddy. Kit told me you’ve had quite a day.”
“I must say it has been one of the most poignant of my life. I hope you can forgive me Elizabeth.”
“Let’s talk tomorrow Daddy, tonight is about Tina.”
“Yes. I read the article in LA Magazine. Congratulations to you by the way. You never mentioned she was pregnant.”
“What difference would it have made Daddy. You dismissed our first child as a fiction of our creation. Like it or not Daddy Tina is my wife and that baby growing inside of her is a part of me. I expect you to respect my family or you can just leave us alone.”
“I’m sorry. I’m here to start making amends Elizabeth. I’ve been so wrong about so many things, especially about your relationship with Ms. Kennard. I just want a chance.”
“That’s going to be up to Tina, but you can start by not calling her Ms. Kennard. Shall we go in. Everyone will be seated in about 15 minutes.”
Melvin had the good grace to feel embarrassed. “It won’t happen again.” He said, then excused himself to use the bathroom.
“So where is Tina?” Kit asked as they walked into the banquet hall where formal dining tables were set up around the room facing a stage and podium at the front.
“All the honorees are meeting with the committee before the dinner. She’ll be out shortly. So where are you sitting?” Bette asked. The tables were numbered so they could easily find their seats.
“Table 3. Where are you?”
“Tina asked me to sit with her at the honorees table. Front and center.” Bette smiled.
“Really?” Kit cocked her head to one side and looked at her sister. “I thought she was sitting with the dragon lady. Don’t tell me you are both at the same table?”

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
