Kat heard her phone text msg: ding! She was in bed watching reruns all day. When she saw it was Joseph , she sat up in bed and read; I am gonna log in, if you want to see me for  a bit? Hugs J

She ran to her laptop and opened and wrote him a text: On my way.  Kat

She logged in and saw he was already online. He invited her to his private room.

Bonita: Joseph! - Runs to him and tackles him down with a hug and kisses all over his face-

Bonita: I missed you so much Joseph. :'(.

Joseph1958: I missed you even more.He made his avatar hug her and sway in the embrace. 


Holly shit! How did you do that? How did she tackle you? Is that you? oh wow . she looks like she is very affectionate..? Michael just nodded and reached out with his hand and touched the screen, on Bonita's avatar. Aww bro? Are you ok?  He kept hugging Bonita's avatar. 

Bonita: Are you ok? Joseph , please talk to me. I worried.

Joseph1958: I can't is a very deep dark secret. But I want you to know something very important i had not realized. I love you. I love YOU Kat.

Kat was crying softly and touching the screen to the only thing she knew about him.

Bonita: Took you long enough to see it. :) I already knew i loved you. But i was scared to tell you.

Oh my god. You guys are making me cry. Said Janet reaching for a tissue.

Bonita: Give me a second. I can't see what i am writing. 

Joseph1958: Me either. 

Michael's tears had his face all wet.Janet gave him a tissue. Thanks he told her.

Joseph1958: Let me cuddle with you. Please.

Bonita: Absolutely :')

They moved to a cuddle pose. She was in his arms. His avi caressing her shoulder, while holding her around her torso. That Is amazing. Said a wide eyed Janet. 

Joseph1958. I need to talk about something. 

Bonita: Go ahead. I am all ears, for you. 

Joseph1958. I don't think we will be able to meet in rl. My life is too complicated. No i am not married or have someone. I have my sister with me tonight. She is helping me get through this. Cause believe it or not . I feel torn apart. I don't know what you must be thinking about me right now. I am so sorry. I can only do this. I can talk to you here and hold you and make love to you.

 MICHAEL! Squealed an embarrassed Janet. He paid no mind to her, he was in his own world with kat. And that is all that matter to him. 

Joseph1958: I am not gay or bisexual or any other label i am ME. A man who seems love has being denied to. I am not dying of a horrible disease , I am not in the army, I am a prisoner of my own doing. Not in jail in case you thought that. I meant it metaphorically. Maybe one day i will tell you why. For now i just want this. you and I . Here loving each other. Do you love me Kat? Enough to accept this terms?

Bonita: I do. If i did not. I would not be in love with you. Love knows no walls, nothing is impossible for those who love with sincerity .

Michael pushed his chair back and sobbed bitterly.Janet put his arm around him. Also sobbing. And at home Kat cried with out Hopes of ever looking into his eyes and kissing his soft lips. Michael composed himself wiping his face and taking deep breaths.

Joseph1958: Ok. I don't want to give you false hopes. Could maybe be one day ... we meet face to face.  and take it from there.

 Michael!! That is not fair for her. You know you can't . Never say never dunk. Said Michael looking at her with a red face and red eyes. I would be an ass if i never gave us that chance. That girl? That over weight girl? Has given me more love and had made me laughed, more than any other. and in three months? We have never disagreed on anything. Have you ever asked her point of view on MJ? Asked a weeping Janet. He looked at her trying to remember. All i know is that she loves Human Nature. Nothing else. Then is time you ask her what does she think about him. She told him resolute. I will not leave your side till you do. 

Joseph1958: Honey?

Bonita: Yes love?

Joseph1958: Can you play the Human Nature song?

Bonita: You read my mind. I feel like hearing it too.

Kat was wiping her face and blowing her nose. She added the song. And Joseph asked her something he never had before.

Let me. Said Janet. He looked at her not understanding. I know how to ask without being too obvious. Ok. He said. He got up from his chair and plopped himself in his bed.

Joseph1958: This man was so talented, don't you think?

Bonita: Very. I think it was so unfair the way everyone treated him. His father, his managers, even his fans...

Joseph1958? The fans? They loved him.

Bonita: Yes, but in a sick way. They would idolize him like a god. I am sure God did not like that ,one bit.

Bonita: I bet that if they could get their way. They could even kill him running over him. lol

Bonita: He had the soul of a kid. I know people used to say that when he was five he had the soul of a 40 year old man. Uhum- Said Janet out loud. But he was just a scared kid that loved to dance and sing. It was his life. Still is. Janet opened her eyes wide. 

Bonita: Because he still alive somewhere. Worry free. I would have done the same. I know he must have had some money saved, some where and paid the Doctor for the little miss hap of going through trial and one year of jail instead of the five. Everything was well thought out.The body, the close casket? Even the tour rehearsals. That was all recorded in a way, that the fans would not feel robbed. He is very clever.I bet he even sees his family now and then.

Janet 's jaw was on the floor and she was trying to get Michael's attention without taking her eyes away from the screen reading on and on. Wow this girl was very in tune with him. Finally she reached  his arm dangling from the bed his face turned to the wall. She pinched him... hard. Aowwwww! what the hell Janet! She just pointed at the screen and her jaw was still hanging.

Bonita: Joseph?? Are you there?? 

Janet went through every line and words with him. Michael's Jaw was also hanging.

Bonita: Joseph!

Joseph1958: Yes i am ( Typed Janet) I was reading you and thinking it. It may be so. Sounds logical.

Joseph: I wish i could stay longer, but i got my sister waiting for me. We haven seen in a while and we want to talk. Get caught up, you know? 

Bonita: OK. Will i see you later?

  Joseph1958: Is possible. If i am not sleepy ,maybe. But knowing my sister we could talk all night or even go out for a walk. 

Bonita: Ok. Just text me if you gonna be online. Kiss. Michael was trying to type his good night over Janet's body on the chair

Joseph1958: Kisses you tenderly. Love you more. And as soon as he hit the enter he  realized he used his unique, love you more.
