Michael now
1978
Michael's P.O.V.
Things been going well, but I feel like I'm missing something. I haven't seen Jaycee since she moved to New York with her family back in '74. The only thing I have left of her is a सोना chain हार she gave me after one of my concerts. To tell the truth, I really do miss her and if I had the chance to, I would tell her that I प्यार her. My thoughts were interrupted when I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was Diana; as in Diana Ross. That's right, we were still shooting the Wiz.
" Mike, time to shoot again. आप okay?" She asked with a smooth, calm voice that was killing me softly. I managed to pull a crooked smile for replying, " Yeah, just thinking." Though, I knew deep in my दिल that I wasn't.
Nipsey and Ted were waiting so we could finish doing the scene were all of us strolled down the yellow brick road गाना " Ease On Down The Road". Ironically, the song described my life.
Other people could tell I was obviously out of it because Quincy came up behind me asking in my ear huskily, " Smelly, आप alright? आप seem unfocused." I was. I couldn't stop thinking about Jaycee now....
(Flashback 1973)
Michael's P.O.V.
I clutched the सोना हार Jaycee gave me in my hand. My brothers and I were just finished one of our concerts and my feet were absolutely killing me. My head was laying on Jaycee's sturdy shoulder while she rubbed my aching arm I held the microphone with.
We were sitting alone in the hotel room just talking like normal teenagers would. I always felt like I could talk to Jaycee without being embarrassed because she felt my pain.
When I made a हटाइए to hold her hands, her eyes nearly popped out of her head. " आप know, आप always look so pretty every time I see you." I tease playfully. Her cheeks went red. " Even when आप blush." I add. She starts to become tense and her hands start to shake.
I began to lean in, and just when we were about to kiss, my brothers came busting in. ( end of flashback)
I'm glad I was दिया another chance to किस her again one साल later but that first time would've been special. When she was here, I was absolutely sure that I loved her but now that she's gone I'm not really sure that I expressed it enough. I wonder how's she's doing...

Practicing for the tour
He turned his head to look over at me. " Yes I will. I'm losing hope. And even if I don't, I might as well. I'm losing my daughter to some psycho, I got stabbed 3 times, there's no use."
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Mom crinkled her eyebrows. " There's no use Summer. आप can't convince him that he isn't going to die." She said, no hope in her voice.
Dad was still awake, but he was फ्रोज़न in one position. His messy curly hair was tossed around and flat on the pillow. When I rubbed my palm over his, they were very cold. If आप think about it, you're actually not sure if he'll make it.
I rested my head on his chest, tears rolling down my cheeks. I couldn't stand the fact the Dad could be leaving me too early...
When we arrived at the hospital, Dad was extremely pale. खट्टा tears rolled down my cheeks. I glanced over at Raymond, who was snickering.
I frowned. " Why are आप laughing?" Raymond rolled his eyes and gave no response.
I tried to help Dad up, but his weight pulled me down too! Mom and I carried him in where they put him a stretcher.
A nurse came up to us. " I feel so sorry for you.I hope Mr. Jackson will make it through.The world would be messed up." She said, smacking her red lips together. She made a nasty look at Raymond.
" It's him!!! Security!!!!" She yelled, pointing at Raymond. His eyes were the size of bowling balls. " Uh-oh!" He grabbed his जैकेट ad ran for the exit.
Meanwhile, Mom and I were sitting there, staring at Dad. He slowly opened his eyes and mumbled something I couldn't catch. " What?" I said, putting my ear closer to his mouth.
" Don't leave me to die." He whispered ever so faintly.
