When it was almost his 7th year since his "death" and fell off the face of the earth, he grew tired of being alone. He missed so many things. Love was always in his mind. Till he learned how to use an instant message virtual world. where he could be...
Michael was frowning at the avatar he picked. "He looks nothing like me". We will fix it once the account is finished. Said Robert. It was like two am. Michael could not sleep and Robert was watching the house , it was his watch tonight. So he thought it was a good chance to make an account , for Michael. He gets so shy and embarrassed .
"Nick name? Asked Robert. I-i Don't Know. His face was red. Oh common Michael this isn't a concert or even a date face to face. Think of something cool. Something you relate to. Michael thought and thought... PETERPANHEART How is that one?Michael asked exited. Um sir.... Isn't that like a kids name? I mean if you were to meet a girl... She might think you are a kid." You are right said Michael with a sad face. Ill just use Joseph. Michael entered the name. but the system kept on rejecting it saying there was already someone with that name.How can it be? He was frustrated. Sir? Asked Robert. Yeah? Michael was chewing on his bottom lip. How about Joseph 1958? Michael looked at him and tried it with wide eyes and bewildered.
The name worked out and he proceeded to the client, or so it was called entering the 3D world. Cool. said Michael watching his avatar blink and change position." Not as cool as what you gonna look like. Now. Robert extracted his wallet and his credit card. What are you doing? Asked Michael. Turning you into a hot men with all the perks of vip and AP does not come cheap , sir? Then use mine. Michael said. No,no. I insist is my gift to you. So Robert loaded Michael's account with 200,000 credits. Bought him VIP and AP. Took him to the shop and they went shopping. They tried on Michael's avatar different skins, hair, head and clothes.Would you like hair on the face? Michael nodded. But i don't usually have it Robert cut him off short. Listen, this is a different world and it is about being who you can not be.
"But that's like lying?! Said Michael a bit upset. Is about being an avatar. Said Robert. You know how you like disguise? Well think of it as that". Said Robert. After an hour of trying all kinds of stuff on , Michael ended with a handsome guy in his 50's.

"That looks nothing like me, insisted Michael. Would you like it that it was exactly like you and tell the world you are in IM???" - NO! I got your point. Now... you need a nice room to entertain your visitors. They went back to the shop and Robert helped him pick out a room with a beach. Michael loved it. Then Robert, Helped Michael understand how to move around and how to find rooms he might like.Then he fixed his profile card. wrote his interests and what he was looking for. "Romantic respectful. Looking for a nice lady to be friends and maybe more. Then he wrote on his tagline . Let's dance together.
Michael was anxious. Now sir we gonna try something so you have an idea. He went on search. added filters for age ,nationality , place she lives and single. They found several. They read through them profiles." omg! Said Michael when he saw a lady half naked and asking for sex. Robert laughed, you haven't seen anything. Here is one that seems interesting. Says she is looking for friends and she likes to dance and chat. Wow said Robert. what? Asked Michael. Read her interests sir."

"Her interests sir... is a quote from you... I guess she is well leveled. Said Robert. Look at her avatar She is extremely- attractive cut in Michael. His eyes were glued on the girl avatar. She exuded stability and sexy as hell.But that wasn't all. She looked like a friendly person and she was in a public room at the moment. Robert said. Go ahead Michael in hush tone!. She is alone in a beach room. Go talk to her. I am too shy i can't what am i gonna say? It was then that Robert and Michael felt Tony up and ready to keep watch and Robert go to sleep.' Ohhh, I see... the boss got hooked too. Hahahaha. Go get some rest Robert, i will help him. Tony.. I don't trust you. Go get some rest old man. Robert stayed , he stood behind Michael watching . May I? Michael? Ill show you." Michael turned the lap top towards him and Tony made a motion for him to sit closer so he could read too.
And so did Robert. He made the avatar go into the beach where The girl avatar was in. She was sitting looking lonely, at the edge of the wooden deck
Bonita: Welcome
After a few seconds. Michael stuttered She can talk!!. That is a trigger voice box she has. Here we go! Said Tony. Robert put a hand on Toni's shoulder. Tone down a few notches , It is Michael you are imitating. I know , i know!! I am just exited.!
joseph1958: Hello. He typed and pressed enter. Michael's avatar raised his hand and waved. The beach waves made it sounds. Robert interrupted, before Michel asked with his mouth hanging open.
It is a room trigger the waves sound as certain words they type. Ohh . ok. Michael could not take his eyes off her.
Joseph1958: My name is Joseph. Nice to meet you.
His avatar said to the girl.
Bonita: Yes i know. I can see it on the bar. lol.
What is lol.? Michael asked the guys. Means laughing out loud. Oh ok. Tony made Michael's avi sit next to the girl.
Bonita: Same here :).
Oh she smiled! Said an exited Tony.
Joseph1958- I must apologies, i am new here.
Bonita: I noticed, she said. and your 57 and your from the usa.
Joseph1958: How did you know all that?
Bonita: I always read profile cards when someone enters a room i am in.
Joseph1958 I see..
" This a tough cookie to brake.Said Tony I am not marrying her tomorrow. I just want to talk.Said Michael. Ok, said Tony. There you go. He pushed the lap top towards Michael. He chuckled low and tense. Michael she isn't gonna come after you.Then Tony showed him how to read profiles.
Bonita: You are very quiet...
Joseph1958: I am sorry i am a bit shy
Bonita: lol The sound of her laughter filled the room through the lap top speakers. And Michael smiled.
Joseph1958: Do you like music?
Bonita: I do. Very much.
Joseph1958: Which sounds you like best?" That was a theme that came easy for him to talk about.
Bonita: I like to chat while I dance. Would you like to slow dance?
Michael said out loud. Already? Tony looked."Nothing wrong there sir. Real people do that all the time when they're in a club or some place with music.
Bonita: Here.
said the girl on the screen her avatar dancing slowly like a ballroom dance. Let me help you sir. See this yellow spots? yeah answered Michael. Move the cursor arrow there to the dot in front of her and click. He did. And in a second he was taking her by her right hand and his left around her thin waste. And he opened his eyes super wide when 3t Why? Song started playing.
Joseph1958? Awesome song.
Bonita: I love this group and the music. Too sad that so many things interrupted their career.
And so the night went on and they chatted and danced until she said she was sleepy and no wonder, it was 5 am.! Michael felt sleepy as well. So day added each other as friends and with the promise to meet again.
