...If Michael Only Knew...(On Hold)

Hard choices. (Oct. 4, 1987)

"Mikey hun, you should listen. I know you want your fans to all have the same chance to see you in action, but if trying to satisfy everyone is going to cause you to get killed, I'd rather we just listen to your tour manager." Hanan sighed. "Michael, Listen to him! It's only for you and Maria's safety that we do this!" Elnora fussed. "Yeah man, it's not like we're canceling the entire thing!" Slash chimmed in. Maria just stood there and patted Michael's back. He was on the couch with his face burried in the palm of his hands.

"Michael, listen to me. This is your best friend speaking to you, heart to heart. I know you don't want to do this, because you think that its unfair to everyone else, and because you're not ready, but we should listen to your manager. If we want our lives, we should go ahead and cancel the remaining shows in Japan, and go straight to Austraila!" Maria said. Michael stood up and sighed. He really wasn't taking his managers advise lightly. He was in shambles. His hair was a mess, and they couldn't get him out of the room for nothing. He just wanted to sit there and think about if he should go straight to Austraila and risk his like to continue. He hadn't spoke to anyone for hours, and now they were going to try to get him to see why this is a good idea.

"Wait, wait, wait everyone! Michael is a grown ass man, This is his tour, we are just his workers and friends, he's the one singing and dancing his ass off every night to rake in the cash, so I think that if he wants to stay, then we should stay!" Tatiana Thumbtzen fussed. The room looked at her with looks of disgust and utter confusion. Tatiana switched her hips over to the phone and brought it over to Michael. "Here, call your  Manager and tell him that you are indeed going to finish up your shows in Japan, no mater what!" She said, trying to pressure him into calling. Michael took the phone out of her hand. Hanan stood up and so did Chinna and Slash. "Alright, what the fuck is wrong with you? Yeah, I don't usually curse at women, but you sound like an idiot Tatiana!" Slash fussed. Michael sat back down on the couch and pulled his hair int a ponytail.

"It sounds like to me, this bitch wants Michael dead!" Chinna fussed. Hanan stepped forward and the room fell silent. "Now Tatiana, this is me, the girl who almost whooped ya ass talking to you, woman to whatever the hell you call yourself..." Slash, Maria, Elnora,Lisa and Chinna giggled at Hanan's statement. "...I don't know who you think you are, but you are not it. You actually sound like you want his ass dead! I mean really Tatiana? If ya really love him, wouldn't you be telling him right, like the rest of us? Hey, you are the one that wants his money, right? So, how the fuck are you gonna rob him, if he's dead?" Hanan smirked while crossing her arms across her chest. Tatiana gasped and grabbed her chest. "Why I NEVER! HANAN DON'T YOU-...." Tatiana started to fuss, but Hanan placed her finger on Tatiana's lips. "Ssssh...You don't wanna get loud with me Tatiana. I don't react well to loud noises..." Hanan smiled and Tatianas eyes widened. "Oh shit..." Slash whispered to himself. Chinna grabbed Hanan's hand and pulled her away from Tatiana's face. "How bout this ya'll, we let Michael make his own choice! We gave him our two cents, but now, it's up to him if he spends it or not..." Lisa said as she lowered herself on to Slashes lap.

Michael shook his head and dialed up to his managers room. "Hello Derick, it's me, Michael. I was calling to let you in on my decession about the cancelation of the remaining schelduled tour dates in Japan..." Michael paused for a second then continued. "Yes Derick. I have decided to go ahead and cancel the rest of the concerts here. I'll make it up to them durring my next world tour, whenever that may be." Michael said slowly. He then hung up the phone and stood up. "Look, our next show in Austraila begins in a week. So, about 7 days from this moment. We have two days to pack up and leave for the next city. So I recomend you get started packing if you have alot of stuff and any shopping of any kind you would like to do, do it today because on the 6th, we're outta here. Now, I'm going to find a way for us to tell Japan the rest of the shows are canceled...please ladies, don't destroy my room while I'm gone!" Michael smiled as he exited the room. Everyone just sat there quiet for the moment,until the phone rang. Maria got up to go answer It. "Hello? This is Maria." She said.It was Janet on the other line. Maria grabbed the phone and went into the other room to talk in private.
