"Georgie, are you still awake?" He said in a whisper as he's already facing to the sound asleep girl. 

The young girl is quite a heavy sleeper and he knew it's hard for him to wake her up. Michael tried slapping her face but she's still fast asleep. He would quickly wake up at the sound of the footsteps of her father, he wondered how Georgina Ahn was still asleep.

He grabbed her one pillow and started hitting Georgina's face, making the girl groan loudly. She slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were still blinded from the darkness of her room and before realizing it was Michael, she almost shouts in fright but the boy quickly covered her mouth.

"Georgie, you might wake up your mother," Michael said in a hoarse whisper.

Georgie realized that it was her neighbor, Michael Jackson. As the boy lets go of her, she is quite stunned. "What are you doing here and how do you get inside?" She said to the mischievous boy sitting on her bed.

Michael pointed to the window in which Georgina saw it was wide open. Of course, she forgot to lock it earlier but she is two levels up from their home. The boy continued, "I know how to do tree climbing, Georgie."

"But it's late, Mike." She said Georgina, is quite worried that her parents might come inside her room in no time.

"Come on, I will take you somewhere nice." He said as he hops out of her bed.

Georgina went out of her bed and she suddenly shivered when the cold night breeze touched her skin. She looked at her alarm clock, it was already four in the morning.

"Where are we going?" She asked as she put on her grey cardigan that is hanging at her chair, the cold air made her skin shiver.

"It's a secret." He said to her. Michael is already sitting at the window sill, his other foot is at the branch of the tree.

Georgina is quite scared of going out at the two in the morning. There might be psychopaths lurking around the corner or maybe when the police caught them due to the curfew, then eventually take them to prison and call their parents. A little girl like her would think millions of things that can make her so anxious then Michael went to her, he held her hand with a certain assurance that they would be alright.

"We will come back safe and sound, I promise." He said. Of course, Georgina trusted Michael whatever tomfoolery that he does, "Okay, Mike."

As Michael quickly went to the tree without any sweat or fear, Georgina looked at the tree below and her heart was already beating so fast. "Georgie, just look at me," Michael told her.
