He goes up to his bedroom schreibtisch and pulls out the nummber. He picks up his phone. He thinks to himself "what if she isn't home, oder 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 Jahr 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 stechpalme, 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 herz jumps with excitment.
Mrs. William comes in "sweetie its for you." stechpalme, holly goes to the phone "Hello." Michael is so excited "Hi stechpalme, holly its me Michael!" "Oh its nice to hear from you." Michael "so what are Du doing?" "Nothing just Schreiben a song." "Really, Du 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 Schreiben "have Du 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 Tag out today, I was wondering if your mom would say yes that Du could come over to my house? I could Zeigen Du my animals, my songs Du know stuff like that." stechpalme, 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!"
stechpalme, 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. stechpalme, holly looks surprised "How did Du know I would be coming?" "I just had a feeling Du would. Don't worry about Du little girl Mrs. William, I will take good care of her." Mrs. William "Oh i'm not worrried, sweetie I will pick Du back up at five-thirty. Alright." "Ok." Mrs. William starts to back up "Behave now!" She leaves. Michael says "i'm so glad Du are here! So Du want to go see my animals? "Sure." They go see the animals, then they go walk around. Michael has so many Fragen and doesn't know where to start first. "So do Du have any brothers oder 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 Du 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. Du know what I mean?" "I know excatly how Du feel. In fact I have never heard such an smart twelve Jahr old as Du are." stechpalme, holly giggles "Well Du have to be in this bussiness."
They go into the house. Michael asks "would Du like some lemonade?" She accepts. Michael gets it, and stechpalme, holly sits down at the küche table. "So tell me about yourself Michael Jackson." "Well what do Du want to know?" "Everything." "Well Du know I sing with my brothers, and that I am nineteen. And I have five brothers and three sisters. stechpalme, holly looks puzzled, "three sisters, I thought Du had two?" "Oh that's right Du never met my oldest sister Maureen, but we all call her 'Rebbie'." "That's cool. But do Du have any hobbies?" I like watching movies, and playing with my animals, oh and I like to draw. Do Du 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 Du have any hobbies?" stechpalme, 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 Du want to go out for acting?" "Well Musik 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 Du something, Du can never have too much Musik in your life." stechpalme, 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 Du so much." "I don't understand what Du mean?" "I guess what I mean is that when I look at Du I see myself when I was your age. That wanting to absorb everything Du 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 Du ever want to talk just call me whenever." "Thanks I will." They walk out to the car. Mrs. William says, "there Du guys are, did Du guys have fun?" stechpalme, 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!" stechpalme, holly says "Well goodbye Michael." she gives him a hug. "Bye Holly." stechpalme, holly and her mother leave. As they pull out Michael says to himself "Why do Du tug so at my heart? Why?"
