November 1995
Liliana was in the supermarket with Micah going grocery shopping, something the little man hated to do.
"Mommy, are you done yet?" he whined walking down the aisle with her.
"Hush." She looked through the meats trying to find something to take home with her. Her cell phone then began ringing. "Baby can you get that for me?"
Micah rolled his eyes and went in her purse and answered the phone. "Hello?"
"What's wrong?" Michael laughed at his son's dead tone of voice.
"Dad! Mom took me shopping. Are you back from your trip yet?"
Liliana turned back and looked at Micah. "That's your dad?"
Micah ignored her and talked to Michael but then Liliana snatched the phone from him. "What do you want?"
"Hi to you too."
"Don't hi me. What do you want?" Michael never even mentioned the letter to Liliana. She felt embarrassed about the whole thing so every time he called her, which was only to talk to his son, she gave him an ice cold shoulder.
"I'm home for the time being so I was wondering if you could bring my son to me as soon as possible."
"Tell someone to pick him up."
"No. I want you to come too."
Liliana laughed. "Definitely not. For what?"
"There's a lot of things we need to talk about."
"Like what?"
"Like...us."
Liliana couldn't doubt herself of her feelings for this man. They were still there and never left. She hated herself for it but for all she knew, he was still happily married. Micah kept his mouth shut about Michael and Lisa's break up. The fact that they were getting a divorce was still a well-kept secret to the world.
"Liliana?" Michael singed.
"What?"
"Are you going to come see me? Please?"
The sound of his voice was making her weak and she couldn't really say no. She did miss him. She hadn't seen him in months. And every time she did see him it was just a 'hi' and 'bye' as she either picked up her son or dropped him off. "I'll be there."
When Liliana and Micah arrived at Neverland, Micah immediately hogged his father's attention. Michael hugged Liliana as Micah held his father's hand. "Meet me in my room," he whispered to her. "It's unlocked."
She rolled her eyes and tried to ignore her pounding heart. She slowly walked to Michael's room as Michael walked away with his son.
She went inside and locked the door. Michael's bedroom was two stories with his bed being up on top. Liliana decided to take a seat in the chair though down below. She looked around the room and admired all of his things. It was her first time actually sitting in the room and seeing everything. She got up and walked in one of the walk-in closets. He had two. She looked around in both trying to figure out where Lisa's stuff was but she didn't find anything. She then snooped around his bathroom. It was huge and there was a Jacuzzi in the corner in front of a window. She thought it was kind of kinky and she liked it but she knew Michael probably didn't see it the same way she did.
She heard his bedroom door close and lock. She stepped out the bathroom and smiled at him. "What's going on?"
"What are you doing?"
