Michael placed the mask over my head, so that part of my face was concealed.
I touched it feebly and then jumped out. Michael held my hand tightly as we exited the car. There were flashes and few people screaming, chanting Michaels name over and over again. There was a camera crew in the front, pushing their microphones and cameral towards him.

" Michael! Is it true you adopted to cover that fact your a homosexual"
" Michael is it true you've gone away to adopt children all over the world!"
" Hey hey Michael is that your daughter?! My ain't she big now- does she kno-"
Michael turned around, his face furious , his other fist clench
" Can't you all see I'm with a child?Yet here you all are talking pack of dirty lies. Im not disgusting, you are! You filthy rascals " he shouted.

The security team then took action.Javon shouted to the crowd, while trying to cover me and Michael as we walked towards the studio.
" Make way! Camera's off! No pictures! Stand back sir! I repeat stand back!"
I was too young, i didn't understand really what they were saying. But i knew what my father was going through. He gripped my hand tightly and led me quickly towards the double doors.

After all that he bent down and took the mask off.
" You okay?" He whispered, checking my arms frantically to see if there were any scratches or bruise from all the pushing and tugging.
I nodded and stared at Javon.
" Thank you J" I said. I was taught to he polite and say thank you for a good deed and what Javon did deserved a thank you. It was the least I can give him.

I sat in one of the plush sofas in the studio , while Michael sorted himself out.  He plucked some buttons on this big machine and then put headphones on.
I got bored and started to fiddle with the sofa. Alex one of Michaels workers came up to me.

" lollipop?" He smiled holding it out.
I smiled and thanked him,taking it quickly.
Michael was shouting across the room, shaking the paper in his hands.
" I want this louder! Make it louder! I want it to have a really spiritual and poignant sound" he said emphasising with his hands. He clicked his teeth, beatboxing while drumming his foot , trying creating the main foundation of the track.I stared in awe as he worked, smiling and laughing with his team.

" Good thats good" he said softly as they adjusted the track.
I was nearly done with lollipop and soon I was left with the stick. I started to chew it , my stomach rumbling like crazy.
" Guys thats a wrap " He said running over to me.
He saw the stick and took it out of my mouth.
" You hungry?"
I nodded and leaned back looking at him, my arms stretched out.
" your getting big now" he said taking hold of me and hauling me up on his hips.

He turned to Javon and whispered softly.
" Hey Jay where can we go to grab something, the little ones hungry here" he said.
Javon looked at his watch.
" If we beat traffic theres a great place uptown , Chinese food place sir"
" great. Lets go now then"
