A week has passed and Michael still has not called Holly! Latoya and Michael are sitting in the kitchen having some iced tea. Latoya takes a sip of tea, she looks at him and knows something is wrong. Latoya asks "whats wrong Michael?" He sighs "oh I don't know, I just feel kind of lonely thats all." "Why should you feel lonely, it is a beautiful day out today!" Michael just looks out the window and never answers her. Latoya thinks for a minute, "oh I know ask David (David Gest) to come over." "I can't he left for his vacation yesterday." Latoya gets up from the table, "well then call that new girl Holly William, you have her nummber don't you?" Michael perks up "Hey that is a GREAT idea toya, I will go call her now!" He literally runs out of the kitchen.

He goes up to his bedroom desk and pulls out the nummber. He picks up his phone. He thinks to himself "what if she isn't home, or worse is home but doesn't want to talk! Well maybe I should just forget it." He hangs up the phone. Then he thinks again "oh my gosh this is crazy, it is just a little girl!... An incredibly beautiful and talented little girl. Why do I have these feelings for a twelve year old? Oh just call her and be done already!" He calls, and Mrs. William answers. "Hello." "Hi Mrs. William its me Michael." "Well Michael how nice to hear from you!" "You too, listen I was wondering is Holly around?" "Yes she is let me go get her, hold on." Mrs. William knocks on Holly's door. Michael lears this sweet little "come in." His heart jumps with excitment.

Mrs. William comes in "sweetie its for you." Holly goes to the phone "Hello." Michael is so excited "Hi Holly its me Michael!" "Oh its nice to hear from you." Michael "so what are you doing?" "Nothing just writing a song." "Really, you write songs!" "Yea, it just comes naturaly I don't mean for it to happen it just does." " That is so cool that same thing happens to me!" "Really!" "Really!" Michael answers. Michael is so interested in her writing "have you written any other songs?" "Oh lots of them I keep them in a special place so know one can find them." "Why they are just songs?" "Yea, but it is my own private thing." "You know it is a really pretty day out today, I was wondering if your mom would say yes that you could come over to my house? I could show you my animals, my songs you know stuff like that." Holly does not know what to say, "well if my mom says its okay then I will be over." Michael has this huge grin on his face "Can't wait!"

Holly asks her mom, which of course she says yes. Her mom drives her over to his house. Michael is outside waiting for them, they pull in. Holly looks surprised "How did you know I would be coming?" "I just had a feeling you would. Don't worry about you little girl Mrs. William, I will take good care of her." Mrs. William "Oh i'm not worrried, sweetie I will pick you back up at five-thirty. Alright." "Ok." Mrs. William starts to back up "Behave now!" She leaves. Michael says "i'm so glad you are here! So you want to go see my animals? "Sure." They go see the animals, then they go walk around. Michael has so many questions and doesn't know where to start first. "So do you have any brothers or sisters?" "Actually I have a older sister and a younger brother." "Oh really how old are they?" "Well my older sister Kate is actualy your age, and my younger brother Kenny is ten." "Do they sing?" "No I am the only one." "You got a dad?" "What is this twenty questiions!" "No I just want to know about you, that's all." "Yea I got a dad. But he hasn't been around lately." "Why?" "Well my dad wasn't exactly thrilled about moving out here in the first place, but that's not what their problem is."What do you mean?" "All mom and dad every do is fight! I have never once actually seen them laugh together about something, ever. Not once. That's why when I get up on that stage, I don't know it seems like i'm a totally different person and all my problems dissaper. You know what I mean?" "I know excatly how you feel. In fact I have never heard such an smart twelve year old as you are." Holly giggles "Well you have to be in this bussiness."

They go into the house. Michael asks "would you like some lemonade?" She accepts. Michael gets it, and Holly sits down at the kitchen table. "So tell me about yourself Michael Jackson." "Well what do you want to know?" "Everything." "Well you know I sing with my brothers, and that I am nineteen. And I have five brothers and three sisters. Holly looks puzzled, "three sisters, I thought you had two?" "Oh that's right you never met my oldest sister Maureen, but we all call her 'Rebbie'." "That's cool. But do you have any hobbies?" I like watching movies, and playing with my animals, oh and I like to draw. Do you draw any?" "I can draw a smurf if that counts!?" They both bust out laughing! Michael,"But my maine hobbie is my music, that is the main one. Do you have any hobbies?" Holly thinks for a moment, "Actually all I have ever really thought of was music, singing, dancing, and acting. That my whole life revolves around." "So you want to go out for acting?" "Well music first then acting. But sometimes I think i've had too much of that in my life, because that is all i've ever really known." Michael is dead serious as her says this,"Well let me tell you something, you can never have too much music in your life." Holly nodds her head in agreement, "That is very true. I like to think that 'every moment has its music'." "That's even truer yet. That's why I think I like you so much." "I don't understand what you mean?" "I guess what I mean is that when I look at you I see myself when I was your age. That wanting to absorb everything you can learn, life hasn't hurt me attitude."

They just stare at each other for a few moments. Both of them not knowing what to say. Finally they hear a car horn honking. "That must be my mom." "Where did the time go. Oh here take this." He hands her a piece of paper. "What is it?" "It's my phone nummber if you ever want to talk just call me whenever." "Thanks I will." They walk out to the car. Mrs. William says, "there you guys are, did you guys have fun?" Holly looks at Michael "Yea I did mom." "Well good, Michael I hope she wasn't an inconvenice?" "Oh believe me I had fun today!" Holly says "Well goodbye Michael." she gives him a hug. "Bye Holly." Holly and her mother leave. As they pull out Michael says to himself "Why do you tug so at my heart? Why?"
