*****
"No absolutely not, I won't do it!" Kevin stood before his father and clenched his fists, ready to defend himself, Jane stood behind him.
His father stood eyeball to eyeball in front of him, arms raised and fists clenched , his face reddening and his body shaking.
"You do as I damn well tell you, you stupid, stupid idiot. What the hell were you thinking, thought we'd just roll over and accept you screwing your sister. You've ruined her and ruined this family. You have no shame and I want you out now, get down to the Police and hand yourself in, with luck you'll get a short sentence and some therapy. You arsehole, you've ruined everything." Flecks of saliva sprang from his mouth landing on Kevin's face, but somehow he didn't even blink.
"Who the fuck do you think you're talking to old man, if you come any closer I will lay you out, and if anyone's ruining things, it's you with your stupid pig headed small mindedness. We thought if we came clean we could discuss this as adults, me I can accept your stupidity, but it's Jane I care about, and Mum. Look at what you're doing you wanker, look what you've done to Jane and Mum."
"Son, this is madness you can't continue this relationship, it's wrong, I can't allow it. Either you do as I say or I have to get the authorities involved to protect your sister."
"Dad, I don't need protecting from Kevin, we love each other and that's all there is too it, please understand, we never intended this, it's just something beautiful that's happened, and now you seem to be trying to ruin it and destroy what we have."
John Carpenter, froze and looked round at his wife and then daughter, suddenly realising what he was saying and doing. He dropped his arms and unclenched his fists.
Jane and Kevin looked towards the sofa where their mother sat weeping into her handkerchief, face contorted in fear.
"John, please let them explain, at least do that, try to see it from their point, please, please."
"Mary, how can you, how can you say that. These are our children, my little girl, how could you allow this to happen. What have you done to them to pervert them like this?"
"Hey, hey, don't you pick on mum, how dare you suggest that our mother is responsible for this. And please don't you ever use the word perverted about our relationship."
Kevin stepped forward again and raised his clenched fists.
"Apologise to Mum and Jane now or I will hit you Dad, apologise!"
John Carpenter, lowered his gaze and began to shake and sob, "What have I done, what have I done," he sobbed. "I love you all so much and I try to do the right things, how could I not see what was happening, Oh God, I failed you all."
" Dad," Kevin said and reached out for his father, touching his shoulder, John Carpenter shook his son away, "Please Dad hear our side of things, please listen."
"I can't, I can't I don't want to be in the same room as you, you make me sick, get out get out both of you, go on get out."
Jane and Kevin looked at each other in despair and their mother fell back on the sofa curling into a ball, both feet sliding under her bottom.
"Nooooo," she wailed, No, please John, don't do this, please don't do this..."
Sobbing John Carpenter headed over to his wife and sat down beside her, enveloping her in his huge frame.
"Help me Honey, help me please!" he wailed, "What do I do, how do we stop this, help me please!"
Her arms threaded through his sides and held onto his back.
"Please John just listen to them, let's try to find some way to get our heads round this, throwing them out won't solve this, please John, I beg of you to hear them out."
He nodded into her shoulder, trying to stem the tears and regain his composure. For five or six minutes more he and Mary clung together locked solid in their agony and grief. Jane and Kevin came together and hugged, as tears streamed down their faces.
"OK, ok, let's calm down and sort this out." his breathing began to slow and his gasps lessen as he came back to normal. After another five or so minutes he appeared to be back under his normal staid control, Breathing slowly and deeply he turned to his children.
"Sorry guys", he said to them, "I just flipped and lost it. You know I have a temper and it gets me into trouble sometimes, I sound off too soon. I didn't mean anything I said, it's because I love you both so much and this is just so damn hard to take in and I just flipped"
"Dad, we love you and Mum so much, we wouldn't hurt you for anything, so this is pretty painful for us too." Jane smiled and went to kneel before her parents.
" What's happened between Kevin and I might seem to be sudden, but really it's been growing a long , long time. I think you should know, however, that I'm still a virgin, Kevin won't make love to me until he feels I'm ready and that there's no pressure on me to do it just to please him."
" Can't do it dad, not until I know it's because Jane really wants to, only when she's ready and it's right for her."
"My God, wow, well I never thought I'd hear that from my kids, ok, you're being damn honest with us about this, and more mature than I thought."
