MJ Story: The Nanny

Chapter 3

-Aaliyah-
I turned around and smiled at him as he approached the couch and smiled at the sight of Melanie.

"I didn't think she'd get so comfortable around you so easily and so quickly. You know, your voice is beautiful. Where'd you learn to sing like that?" He sat beside me and I giggled softly, shrugging.

"I was born this way. I owe it all to God," I stared into his eyes and he smiled again, taking another glance at Melanie.

"I should show you around. How 'bout it?" He asked and I nodded, standing up and adjusting Melanie in my arms.

"The first place we'll tour; Melanie's room." We laughed softly and he led me upstairs to her room.

We ended the tour after exploring around the main home and the grounds where all the rides were located. "Snow cones," I smiled as we walked past.

He laughed, "I'll be sure you have one tomorrow. What do you think of the place so far?"

"I love it! It's amazing around here. I'm definitely going to love it here, Mr. Jackson. Thank you so much for this opportunity."

"Awww. Come here," Michael said and he pulled me in a tight embrace. "I see you're stuck on this Mr. Jackson stuff."

I laughed as we continued to hug and then a loud "AHEM" was heard.

We pulled away and saw Lisa standing there with her arms folded. "Baby!" Michael said and started walking towards her.

I stood there watching her clench her teeth and speak softly to Michael. Before I knew it, she gave me the ugliest look before pulling him away with her. I shook the feeling away and followed behind them, leaving a huge gap in between us.

An Escalade pulled up and I saw two children get out and run towards Michael and Lisa. They must be Mariah and Mike Jr. I caught up with them and Michael introduced us.

"Daddy! She's really pretty," Mariah said and walked over, grabbing my hand. I held her hand and smiled as I looked down at her gorgeous little face, "Thank you, sweetie. You're really pretty too."

She smiled and hugged me, "I like her already, daddy. Come on, Ms. Liyah. I'll show you my dolls." I laughed as she pulled me along with her and Jr ran after us, "Wait on me!"

I extended my free hand and he took it once he got close to us. Michael smiled widely and looked at Lisa, "They like her already, Lisa." "They don't even know this girl. You don't even know her. Just allowing a complete stranger in our home and around our children. She could be a psycho for all we know!"

Michael ran his hand through his hair and shook his head, "We're not going through this mess again, Lisa. We need her. I need her!"

"What the hell do you need her for? Hm? Is she some side chick you've invited to stick around so you can do things while I'm away?"

"Now you're talking crazy! And you think Aaliyah's the psycho!" He brushed her lightly as he walked away. She followed behind him with her arms folded.

Inside the house, I played with Mariah as Jr made loud car noises, pushing his toy trucks around the room.

We imitated the dolls' voices and laughed while doing it. I looked at the clock and saw it was almost late. "I hate to ruin the fun, sweetie, but I have to go."

Her lips pouted and she whined, "But I don't want you to go, Ms. Liyah."

I pouted too as I stood up, "I'll be here tomorrow. We'll finish playing then, okay?"

She held out her pinky, "Pinky promise?" I smiled and locked my pinky with hers, "I pinky promise."

Mariah pecked my pinky and I pecked hers as well. We hugged and I released my grip on her to hug Jr.
