Michael's POV
December 31, 1988: 2:55pm
We've been looking for Alex for about 35 minutes at most. He's no where to be found. Ohhh where is he?! Then I felt someone hug my leg, I looked down and noticed a little boy, older then Alex, about 5 years old.
Little boy: "Are--Are you my Daddy?", he asked teary eyed as he looked at me.
Michael: "Oh, no. I'm sorry little buddy", I said as I crouched down to him, "But we'll help you find your Mommy and Daddy, where did you see them last?"
Little boy: "Um... At... I--I don't remember", he said starting to cry.
Michael: "Ohhh don't cry", I said and hugged him, "Come on, let's go find them", I said letting go and getting up and holding his hand, "So, what's your name?", I asked as we walked to where we started, with María beside me carrying Michelle and Jim behind us.
Little boy: "Rafael", he said softly.
Michael: "Well, nice to meet you Rafael", I said with a smile. Then I noticed two people spotted Rafael. Rafael then ran to them.
Rafael: "Mommy! Daddy!", he screamed as he ran to his parents and they hugged him tightly then they walked over to us.
Man: "Oh hola, thank you for finding our son", he said.
Michael: "Oh, no problem. It's more like he found us", I laughed a little.
Man: "Well, thank you Mr--", he said extending his hand.
Michael: "Jackson", I whispered, "Mr. Jackson", I smiled and shook his hand.
Man: "You Michael Jackson?", he asked as he let go.
Michael: "Yes but don't tell anyone"
Man: "I haven't told anyone since the day I saw you"
Michael: "Wait, we've met before?", I asked, raising an eyebrow.
Man: "Yes. I Christian Casantro. We came to Christmas Eve"
Michael: "Oh that's right! Well, nice to see you again"
Christian: "Nice see you again", he smiled, "And this my wife, Rebecca Casatrantro", he said introducing her.
Rebecca: "Nice to meet you, Michael", she said and smiled as she extended her hand.
Michael: "Nice to meet you as well", I said shaking her hand, "And this my wife, Maria Cruz", I said putting my arms around her.
Rebecca: "Well nice to meet you, María", she said with a smile and extending her hand
María: "Nice to meet you too", she said and smiled, shaking her hand, "And nice to see you again, Christian", she said as they both let go.
Christian: "Nice see you again, María", he said and smiled.
María: "Nice to see you again", she and smiled.
Michael: "Oh and this is our daughter Michelle and this is my friend and bodyguard Jim", I said introducing them.
Jim: "Nice to meet you", he nodded and smiled.
Rebecca: "Nice to meet you too", she smiled.
Christian: "Nice to meet you", he smiled.
Michael: "So, um.. Where were you guys off too?"
Rebecca: "We were on our way to my mother's house but then Rafael got lost"
Christian: "But now he found and we can go", he smiled, "Where were you off too?"
Michael: "Well we were going back to the hotel again because María got sick but then Alex got lost... We have to find him before he gets even more lost. So, we better be going"
Rebecca: "Oh, yeah. We better be going too. We're already late. It was nice meeting you all and thank you for finding our son"
Michael: "It's no problem and nice meeting to as well"
They all waved goodbye and got in their car and drove off. We started walking around New York looking for Alex once again.
Michael: "You okay?", I asked walking beside María.
María: "Yeah.. I'm fine", she said and coughed into her scarf, "How about you carry Michelle, I don't want to get her sick", she said and passed Michelle to me.
Michael: "Alright", I smiled and gently took Michelle and held her in my arms. Then Michelle started to wake up, "Well, hello there sleepy head"
Michelle: "Hi", she said sleepily, "Where we going?"
Michael: "We're looking for Alex"
Michelle: "Will we find him?"
Michael: "Of course we will"
We continued walking and walking. It's already 3pm. Then Michelle stretched out her arms to María. I passed Michelle to María and she held her tightly. I wrapped a scarf around Michelle's neck and put on her hoodie over her head. She took off her hoodie and smiled at me.
Michael: "Michelle", I laughed and put her hoodie back on her. María chuckled a little and coughed into her scarf. We continued walking into Times Square then it started snowing.
Michelle: "Momma. It's snowing!", she whispered to María while pointing up at the sky.
María: "Yes it is", she whispered back and smiled.
Michael: "We really need to find Alex and fast"
Jim: "Well, if you were a 3-year-old boy, where would you be?"
Michael: "Um... At a candy store"
María: "Since he's lost, he may be running around or hiding somewhere"
Michael: "Hmm"
Voice: "Mommy?! Daddy?!", I heard a little boy yell. It sounded like Alex. As the boy got closer, I saw it was Alex! Alex spotted us too and ran to us. I crouched down and spread out my arms.
Alex: "Mommy! Daddy!", he yelled running over to us and hugging me.
Michael: "Alex. I'm so glad you're okay", I said hugging him back. I got up, holding Alex and we all walked back to the car.
