Consider the circle \( C : x^2 + y^2 = 4 \) and the parabola \( P : y^2 = 8x \). If the set of all values of \( \alpha \), for which three chords of the circle \( C \) on three distinct lines passing through the point \( (\alpha, 0) \) are bisected by the parabola \( P \), is the interval \( (p, q) \), then \( (2q - p)^2 \) is equal to ________ .
