Michael and I were, once again, in our way to California.


He turned on the radio, really loud, even if I advised him to do not, but Michael was really stubborn.

He preferred to leave it like this, with the sound roaring in my ears , almost giving me headaches, and to sing songs that I noticed he was knowing by heart.

I gave up to the idea of making him turn it down.

I just stayed there, leaning on my seat, observing him.


There was no doubt.

I was in a car.

In a car drove by Michael Jackson

« By Michael FUCKING Jackson...»


I still hadn't managed to become fully aware of my situation.

He seemed so common, dancing and singing on a James Brown's song which was on the radio, so natural.


"Get Up, ( I Feel Being ) A Sex Machine"


I even had the strong feeling that, if he wasn't driving, he would be able to dance in the same way as the King Of Soul himself would.

Maybe because Michael was surely able to dance like James Brown, he wasn't so common.

And when you think about how and where I met him, yes he was very far from being common.


I was in such deep thoughts, while gazing at Michael, that I didn't notice that he had stopped singing and was now looking back at me, smirking.

I smiled and rolled my eyes.

Ye, sometimes he could irritate me.

Especially when I knew, because of that smirk on his lips, that he had something in his mind.


« What are you thinking about, Moon ? » he asked.

« About the fact that there's no doubt. »

« Doubt about what ? »

« I'm in a car, and the dude sitting in the driver's seat is none other than Michael Jackson himself. »

« Oh, because you doubted it ? » he said, laughing this time.


When he was laughing, I noticed that his bottom lips was titled slightly on the left and that his chin become much more marked. And his laugh... It looked like a child's laugh. It sounds so innocent and so high pitched... I knew that even in front of 3 thousand of others, I would always be able to recognize the sound of his laugh.

It was unique.


« I didn't say that I was doubting it... It's just that... I had the confirmation... » I said shyly, looking out the window to avoid his gaze.


I'm a very shy person, naturally.

I always been and I'll always be, even if, sometimes, for example when I'm upset or mad, it seems like my shyness disappear during a short period.


But Michael has a very special gift from God : he could boost my shyness and my self consciousness just by looking at me.
