Come Together

Chapter 15:Recovery , a lot of drama

Roberta's POV

Michael has been out of the hospital for about two weeks now and last weekend he had his laser surgery on his scalp. They gave Michael some heavy medications because just as anybody would predict he is in a whole lot of pain . Mother and I have been helping him heal. As usual Michael can never sit still he is always up doing something. Just the other day I had to force him to sit down because he almost burned the house trying to cook grits haha. I've been staying at hayvenhurst for a past week or so I refuse to leave Michael but unfortunately I have a interview and photoshoot seventeen magizine they named me the most beautiful women for this year and I'm honored. That takes place in about three hours or so. For now I'm making Michael and mother and Joesph an omelette and sausages with toast and fruit. They all need it . Michael brothers and sisters are the most supportive people of the family they come by or call every day to check up on us. I've brought Monti and Mia with me so they can play with some other animals other than their older sibling German Shepards Mardi and Brady so far their doing fine and their getting along with them just fine. I take Michael his tray. I walked in and he is sitting on window bed reading. I swear he should be a scientist because he surprises me with the things he tell me that's brand new to me.

Michael's POV
I've been home for bout a week in a half or so from surgery and the hospital and without these painkillers my head wouldn't be on my shoulders. Without Roberta, mother and my family I would be miserable. They have helped me so much. Roberta basically moved in her and her dogs that I've grown out of my fear of. Today she has to get back to work and I understand. I will miss her dearly even though she is coming right back here. I know that it won't be soo that I have to get back to working as well. As a matter if fact the Grammy's is three months away and I can't wait. I'm reading a book and I see my wonderful girlfriend walk in with a silver tray and it smells good. I really love her.
She sits next to me and kisses my cheek.
Roberta: hey my scientist
Me:*shyly laughs*hey babe what you got there.
Roberta:*I made you breakfast and I made mother and Joesph breakfast as well because they deserve it.
Me:awww that's nice of you baby.
Roberta: I know I just felt the need to do that. Besides I'm going to be out basically all day so why not.
Me:*kisses her and prepare to eat *
Roberta: nope. Let me open it.
Me: pouts.. OK
She opens it and I swear I could've married her right there on the spot. This women made me an Mexican omelette, toast and orange juice with strawberries on the side. I love strawberries .
Me: thank you baby this looks delicious.
Roberta:*giggles * I knew you would like that. Eat up baby. I'll be back I got to give mother and Joesph their food.
She left to give my parents their food. She really is a blessing from above.

Roberta's POV
After I give mother and Joesph their food I go to Michael's room and chat with him for a few because I have to get ready.
Me: what's happening today
Michael: today is the last day I would think about what to do with Pepsi. I don't want to sue them but dammit my head is pounding every three seconds seems like. On the other hand I know that this was not their fault. Things like this happens all the time ya know?
Me: yeah baby I know. Well it's your decision so im not going to tell you what I would do if I was you. You have a kind heart Michael and a wise brain so you do what's right or what you feel is right.
Michael: thank you baby. I love you. What do you have to do after your interview? I am really happy for you by the way. They named my baby one of 100 most beautiful women of the year. You're really a beauty.
Me: Awwww thank you baby. I'm still shocked that they nominated me and I won hahaha. Actually I don't know what to do afterwards.
Michael: because You're beautiful and I wish you can really see that. You said you don't know what to do well then let's go out seeing that someone's birthday is coming soon.
Me: thank you. Where do you think you're going. You're not allowed to be out the house yet. I know my birthday is coming soon but I want to make sure you're healed all the way or at least half way before we go anywhere. The Grammy's is coming soon and I'm going to need you fully healed.
Michael: see that's the problem. You are too kind. I know I'm injured but I don't care. They gave me those painkillers because they knew that me being Michael Jackson means I am never at home or not doing anything. There's no buts when you get back were going out. Thank you for caring for me baby I really do appreciate you a lot but now it's my turn to repay you.
With that he kisses me and go takes his plate down stairs. I shake my head because that man is as stubborn as they come and he will argue you to the ground . I get up and get ready. I throw on red skinny jeans, white pumps, and a white and red shirt. I do my hygiene stuff and put on lotion and perfume seeing that Michael loves it. I leave my hair down I put on my red hoops earrings and red and white bracelets on top of the bracelet that Michael gave me. I still have on the necklace he gave me as well. I head down stairs to see everybody here. When they see me they mouth drop. Do I look weird to y'all or do I have something on my face?? I start panicking only for Janet to out burst really loud.
Janet: girl you look nice. Congrats as well.
Me: thank you girl. Thank you
Janet : where you off too anyway.
Me: I got to go to the interview for seventeen magizine
Janet : girl go ahead haha tell Jim I said hello.
Randy: my brother better have a really tight grip on you or else.
Me: shut up boy haha
I go to mother and Joesph and hug them and tell them I'll be back later . I go to find Michael and he was in the den talking to the one and only Brooke Shields . I admire this lady.
Me: oh my goodness it's you. I'm a huge fan.
Brooke: well hello Roberta. I love your work you inspired my looks over the years. You're really beautiful.
Me : thank you that means a lot coming from you.
Michael : hey baby. You look beautiful. Are you leaving now?
Me: thank you love and unfortunately yes. I'll be back and you can take me wherever you had planned.
Michael: yay!!!
Me and Brooke laughs. I say bye to both of them and drive to seventeen studio. When I get there i see Malissa taking to two little girls who look familiar... They're the two little girls that I saw at the restaurant that day. What a coincidence haha. I go up to them and say hey they hugged me like they haven't seen me in ages. They look a bit older too. No sooner than I get comfortable I'm being called for wordrobe and make up.
