    Although Bette was younger and had a different temperament than Kit Melvin used the same tactics to control his daughters rather than nurture them. Neither one was the same little girl as before their mothers died. When Kit wanted to pursue music and Bette showed interest in art, he discouraged their ambitions because it didn’t match his own for them. He tried to stifle their creativity, but both turned out to be strong-willed when it came to their passions and followed their dreams despite him. For that he was petty and vengeful in unforgivable ways that caused deep-seated harm that would manifest in self-destructive behaviors later in life.

    He’d expressed to his best friend Charlie at one time that he felt punished by the women he loved. First by his two ex-wives for preceding him in death and leaving him to care for both his daughters. Then by Kit for her addiction to drugs and alcohol and even by Bette for her sexual preference. Charlie couldn’t reconcile that way of thinking and basically called his friend a self-centered son of a bitch that should be counting his blessings. Charlie and Eva tried not to interfere with how Melvin raised his girls, but they were very disappointed in his treatment of Kit, not only when she was suffering with depression and feelings of abandonment that led to a drug and alcohol addiction during her senior year in high-school but years later when she came back asking for his help to raise the baby.

    Kit had not seen her father for three years and had no communication with him until she turned up on his doorstep at 21. She was two months pregnant; the child’s father wanted no responsibility and she was strung out on drugs. Coming home was a desperate cry for help. Upon learning that he was to be a grandfather Melvin committed her to a drug rehabilitation center for the sake of the baby’s health. Fortunately, it was early enough in the pregnancy that the child was not addicted and appeared to be developing normally. The infant had a good chance to make it to full term provided the mother stayed off the drugs.

    Having nowhere else to go and no one to take care of her and the baby, Kit signed the papers and agreed to the treatment. With the toxins cleansed from her body her mind cleared as her stomach stretched with a new life. She was grateful to her father, having realized how much harm she could have brought to the baby, even death if he hadn’t intervened. She’d fallen in love with the idea of being a mom and wanted the chance to raise the baby. Knowing she couldn’t do it on her own she’d asked her father if she and the baby could move in until she found a job.

    1. I am glad Melvin finally admits his faults and behaviour to his daughters and is trying to make amends with them.

      Good that he will go to another oncologist to see if his cancer is treatable.

      His children deserve to know a changed father who will love them.

      Thanks for a great chapter and the insight of Melvin’s life and thoughts.

      • Bibi28 – thank you for commenting. Yes Melvin is certainly at a turning point in his life. I guess it’s never too late to make amends. Hopefully his cancer treatment will not only prolong his life but make the time he has left with his family more fulfilling with love and gratitude.

    2. You are quite right, I don’t like him any more than I did and I hope you do not write him off before he changes his Will to include Tina and child!

      Thanks for posting this BAT, like it that you have given David a nice Character.

      Looking forwarded to future posts, nice to have you back, missed you!

      • Hi SassyGran – You are one of the reasons I wanted to come back to finish this story as I really appreciate loyal readers that stick with us, even when we stay away for a while. I was thinking of you when I wrote this chapter and knew that Melvin wasn’t going to earn any points with his behavior but hopefully he will make good on his ambitions for the future.

    3. Thank you for the new chapter!

      About Melvin – i always think that although he almost all his life he was against his daugher sexual preference – he had excuse. He grew up in different times were almost everyone not tolerant homosexuality. He just was man his era. For me Bette’s behaviour against Tina when they had meetings with him was much worse. Especially at those dinner in s1.

      • Zhenya, thank you for commenting. I agree totally that Bette’s treatment of Tina when her father was around was much worse. I was very disappointed in that entire episode when he came to visit and they told him about the baby. I can understand some of Melvin’s societal views because of his age but there is no excuse for being an ignorant sob. His treatment of his daughters and Tina was inexcusable. I’m trying to make him accountable in this story, but also giving him a chance to make amends.

    4. You have written a Melvin.I could begin to like now that he has come clean with both of them and Tina. Hopefully, his change of heart will go a long way in helping him have a better life for as long as you give him. Maybe he will have those treatments that will prolong his life for a time and give him some quality time with his family before his death. It would be wonderful fr him to see Angelica grown up a few years and to see how smart and lovely she would become and that And that Bette and Tina could have a wonderful life as well as Kit and David. How I wish we could have seen these revelations on the show, how wonderful that would have been. Thank you for making him a better man. Can hardly wait for the next chapter to see where you take us. Wonderful writing. Thanks again.

      • Hi Dainty, so nice to hear from you. Thank you for going back and reading previous chapters and commenting. I know the Melvin on the show was impossible to like, but I think he had real regrets on his death-bed. Had he lived perhaps he would have changed, at least that’s what I hope to convey in this story. Next chapter should be ready soon.
