Two years has passed since the first time holly was at his house. Which means holly has turned fourteen now, and Michael will become twenty-one in five months. Over the past two years they have become close mga kaibigan sharing each others secerts.Michael still has feelings for her and has tried to deny it, but he can't help but feel that way.
Michael is sitting at his mesa Pagsulat a song. He looks out the window, which is a rainy day. He thinks to himself, "why can't I stay focused on this song? I guess its one of those songs that need some time." He looks over and on his mesa is a picture of Holly. He picks it up and admires it for awhile. "What a beautiful picture that is of her, but then again she is beautiful period. I need to stop saying that! I will be twenty-one, and she is fourteen, it would never work." He puts the picture down and goes to the window and looks out. Suddenly there is a knock at the door. " Who is it?" "It's Latoya who do you think it is you silly goose!" "Come on in 'toya" he says flatly. She comes in. "Hey why the long face? Is it the weather, because I know what you mean I was gonna go swimming today but..." Michael becomes annoyed and stops her, "Latoya it is not the weather okay!" "Then what's the problem? You have been walking around her like a madala with a sore butt all week." Michael starts walking over to his mesa again "Oh you wouldn't understand." "What wouldn't I understand? We talk about everything you and me, now there is nothing you cannot talk to me about."
Michael thinks for a moment, and wonders if he should tell her. He sighs "alright I will tell you." "Oh wait a minuto Michael." She walks over to the kama and sits down. "Okay I'm on the kama and cozy, should I get some papkorn or is it a shorter story than that?" "You know what just forget it Latoya!" "Oh come on I was just playing with yea!" Michael picks up the picture of holly and looks at it again. "When I say this you won't think i'm weird?" Latoya sighs and looks at her watch, "Michael I don't have all day." He takes a breath "okay, I pag-ibig Holly." Latoya laughs "oh is that all, well thats understandable we all pag-ibig Holly." "No Latoya I don't mean that kind of love, I mean I pag-ibig her." Latoya stops laughing, "what!" Michael gets up from his mesa and starts to pace. "And I know she's just a little girl, but their is something about her that drives me wild. I don't know what to do to get rid of these feelings?" "Well Michael first of all she is not a little girl, she is a teen and segundo if you really care for her then wait until she gets older and then have a relationship." "Maybe your right. But you won't tell mother about this right?" " Of course not." Michael starts to walk out, "thanks 'toya, I gotta go, Quincy (Jones) and I are gonna play around with some songs." "When should I tell mother you will be home?" "I don't know, late." "Gee Michael that is really specific!" Michael rolls his eyes and walks out.
Michael gets to the studio, and him and Quincy record some songs (and rework the ones they have already done!) Michael is in the recording booth changing the lyrics to "Rock with you" song.There comes a knock on the door. Quincy sagot "Come in." holly walks in. Quincy says, "Hey holly how you doing girl!?" He gives her a hug. "Oh fine" she answers. "So are you ready to start a new album with me?" Quincy asks. "Yea I am so excited, i've been working on some new stuff at tahanan that I think you will like." "Did you bring any with you today?" "Now who and their right mind goes around carrying songs with them?" Quincy starts to laugh, "you." "Yea your right." she pulls out the songs from her Gucci bag she has with her. All of this time Michael has been working on this song, and has not seen, or heard her. Meanwhile Quincy starts to look at the songs, and holly looks at Michael ingrossed in this song. She looks at Quincy, "does he know i've been here this whole time?" Quincy laughs "you know what I don't think he has." "Well whats he trying to do?" "Oh he's trying to change some lyrics." He presses on the button to talk to him through the recording booth. "Hey Smelly look who's here!" Michael finally looks up, and he gets the biggest smile on his face. He starts to walk out of the recording booth, but he did not see those wires on the floor. So as he started to walk out he tripps and falls on the floor!
Quincy and holly bust out laughing! holly goes into the recording booth. "Hey you okay?" she asks. "Yea i'm fine." she helps him up. "You need to be madami careful." "Hey smelly did you hurt the songs?" They both laugh, "Thanks for your concern Quincy! So tell me why you here? No wait let me guess you had to see me and my beautiful face!" "Oh yes, that's excatly why." They laugh, and he puts his arm around her. "No tell me why?" "Well did Quincy tell you the good news?" "No" he says puzzled. "Me and Quincy are gonna do an album together!" "Oh my gosh that is exciting! uy Q you've been holding out on me! Quincy laughs, "I wanted her to tell you the news." "So when are you gonna start?" "I'm hoping in a week or two." "I am so proud of you." He looks deep into her eyes, and she does too. Quincy breaks it sa pamamagitan ng saying, "Hey smelly we need to get back to work." "Alright, uy holly you want to stay awhile?" holly gets all excited, "oh yes, I would pag-ibig it!"
They go on for hours joking, recording, talking, and just having fun. holly calls her mother to come and pick her up. As the phone rings holly keep saying "come on pick up." Finally her mother picks up. "Hey mom can you come and pick me up?" "I'm sorry sweetie but I can't." "Why not?" "Because me and your father are someplace." "Like where?" "I can't tell you." "Why!" "I just told you, I can't tell you!" holly sighs, "Well then have Kate pick me up." "She can't, because she's on a date." "I don't understand if you and dad are not home, and Kate is on a petsa then who's watching Kenny?" "Oh he's at tahanan sa pamamagitan ng himself." "What! He's twelve years old and he's at the house sa pamamagitan ng himself!" "Listen here don't you take that tone with me missy! You may be a celebrity, but i'm still your mother!" "No you Listen here, I have a right to know where you two are!" Her mother hangs up on her. "Huh Hello!" holly shakes her head as she hangs up.
Meanwhile Michael overheard their conversation. He goes over to her, "Hey you okay?" "No, my parents are awall can't come pick me up, and they left Kenny at tahanan all sa pamamagitan ng himself you know he's only twelve!" holly puts her head in her hands and starts to cry. Michael starts to rub her back, "come on now don't cry, your to pretty to cry." "You know it is not my responsiblity to be the parent to Kenny, but I am." "shhh, its okay. Listen how about you call kenny make sure he's okay, and I will drive you home." "You will?" "Only if you stop crying." "Ok, i'll call him." She calls. While she is doing that Michael says to Quincy, "Hey i'm gonna drive holly home, then i'll be back." "Alright that's fine is everything okay with her?" "Yea, just no one can pick her up." "Okay, just be careful." Michael drives her home. He opens her door for her, and walks her to the door. She unlocks it, and turns arond. "Thanks for taking me home, it was sweet of you." "Its no big deal I was happy to do it." "Well goodnight Michael." "Goodnight." But they never move, they just stare into each others eyes. All of a sudden they take a long halik together.
Michael breaks it, "i'm so sorry I did that!" "No, I loved it." She goes to halik him again, but Michael pulls away. "No I can't halik you again." "Why?" "Holly do you understand that your fourteen, and I am soon to be twenty-one? Don't you see, it would never work." "How can you say that, age is just a number it doesn't mean anything!" "Well it does matter because your to young." He sighs, "I just don't want to hurt you,that's all." She starts to tear up, "Yea, well did right now." "Holly!" holly goes in and slams the door.

Michael, your just another part of me. i remember the time people made malicious tabloids and they only played you for the money. They always wanna be startin something with you. Is it scary to see us suffer? You werent bad or dangerous and you wanted people to come together to heal the world. You keep the faith and you were the man in the mirror and for that i just cant stop loving you. You make me smile and you made me realized that childhood is the best of joy. You rock my world and you are not alone. I am speechless for your irreplacable talent. But you were always a thriller to us all. I wanted to be your superfly sister.
that you know you shouldn't have
The madami you know you shouldn't have it,
The madami you want it
And then one araw you get it,
It's so good too
But it's just like my girl
When she's around me
I just feel so good, so good
But right now I just feel cold, so cold
Right down to my Buto
'Cause ooh...
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away
Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no tahanan
Anytime she goes away
I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, know, know, know, know,
I know, I know,
uy I ought to leave
I ought to leave her alone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every araw
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no tahanan
Anytime she goes away
His first goal in life must have been to own a kendi store because he loved to play storekeeper. After Joe began giving him and his brothers a weekly allowance, he would spend every cent of it on kendi and gum. He’d come tahanan with an armful of it, take a board and two bricks and place them in the doorway to the boys’ bedroom, place a cloth over the board, lay the kendi on tuktok of it, and sell it to his brothers and sisters and mga kaibigan for the same price he’d paid for it.
Michael was also a serious candy-eater and gum-chewer. Before he opened his “store,” he’d save his pennies so that he could purchase bubble gum at the concession stand at the Little League ball park behind our house. One night, however, he couldn’t find his penny for gum and he was so upset he started crying. “Mother, do you know what happened to my penny?” he asked. I knew the answer when I saw Marlon @Marlon_Jackson happily chewing away on a wad of bubble gum nearby.
