“Thank you, Mr. Porter, that very nice a you.” Ozzie said to him as he walked away to refill his coffee cup. He then sat back down at the table to finishing reading his paper.
“You’re welcome, Ozzie.”
The two of them sat together reading as the radio played some quiet smooth jazz in the background. A song came on that Ozzie recognized and he began to quietly hum to it. Melvin recognized that he had a good voice and soon he was humming along with him. Ozzie smiled at him as they hummed. After the song ended, Melvin had finished his paper and was curious as to what Ozzie was reading.
“So, I’m finished with the paper, what are you reading?”
“I reading a book about bears. Momma found it in the bookstore for me and I like it. It tells all kinds of things about the different kinds of bears.” Ozzie replied.
“Hmm, that’s interesting. Do you know all the words?”
“I know most of them and try to figure out the others.”
“Do you want me to help you with reading the words in the book?” Melvin asked him and Ozzie beamed.
“Yes, pease, that would be nice.” He replied.
So Melvin stood up again and came over and first moved the books over to his side of the table and then he picked Ozzie up and carried him over to his place at the table and they sat so that Ozzie was on his lap. They opened up the book about bears at the beginning and Ozzie read to him and when he came to a word he wasn’t sure about, Melvin helped him sound it out.
After finishing that book, Ozzie thanked him for helping him. “Thank you, Mr. Porter, that was fun and I know more about bears.”
“You’re welcome. I was wondering something…”
“Oh… Mr. Porter what is that?”
“Well, Mr. Porter sounds so formal… could we possibly come up with a different name for me?”
“What would you like me call you? I not call you Melvin cuz that not right. It not respectful… How about Mr. Melvin?”
“Well, no, that’s till too formal… Can’t you think of something else?”

Hope Bette decides to go….PPS.
Melvin seems to have had a total change of heart, I suppose he would have to have a heart of stone to reject someone so little that had nothing but love to offer. Bette will only get one opportunity to see her daughter born, if she misses out she will only certainly regret it later on. Thanks for posting. :)
I love this story and I really hope that Bette goes to see the baby being born.
Bette’s so full of love now – she HAS to go!
Bette HAS to go. Theres no reason not to. Ozzie is awesome. He could charm anyone. Great chapter. Thanks =]
Hope she goes
Come on Bette. Deep down you know you want to see your baby being born.
Go Bette ,go !!!
Hoping that Bette makes the descision to go see Tina and her new daughter being born.Good on the little man for bringing Melvin around to being at last a loving Father and Poppa
Excellent update thank you
Bette needs to go just n case something happen to tina or baby. Being the other mother i would think she want to b there for the baby
Where’s page 10? Awesome story!
Glad Ozzie won over Melvin, and I hope Bette decides to go
If Bette has to think about going or not, she is not ready. She didnt hesitate about Ozzie. I still do not like this new Bette. But I want to kknow where the story will lead us.
