"Mia! Mia! Mia girl you better get your butt down here. I have to tell you something!" I called from the living room. She walked downstairs with her robe on. "What?" she asked. "I have to run to the studio to grab some sheet music before surgery. If I come home late you know why."
"Oh Michael when has there ever been a time you come home early?"
"Girl dont start with me."
"I wasnt startin nothin. You interrupted my bath."
"Im terribly sorry Mrs.Jackson."
"Its alright Mr.Jackson. Now you should hurry on to the studio because you wont be there for awhile." she said hugging me and giving me a kiss. "You are correct. Let me go." I said grabbing my keys. I dashed out of the house and headed to the studio.

After finishing my bath I decided to relax like I usually do. I didnt feel like jogging or painting. I was so nervous about the surgery. My mom rented out a house here in California, so I was still close to her. I wonder what she was doing at this moment.
The doorbell rang and I ran to open it. It was Janet and Latoya. "Hey Mi Mi!" they said in unison. "Hey guys." I said letting them in.
"Whats up?" i asked
"You look so sad. We came to check up on you." Latoya said
"So you didnt come over here to have a cocktail or anything? Just to check up on me?"
"Jeez you sound bored." Janet said
"Very bored."
"Well there's this nice new shop that opened up on 54th. We can go check it out. You want to?" she asked
"Of course I do!" I said smiling.
We headed to the shop and when we walked in my jaw dropped. "These dresses are so beautiful!" I said running to this silver and black one. "Girl I could have permanent residence here!" Janet said in awe. We all tried on some dresses and we decided to buy a couple.
I called Michael to ask if I could use the emergency credit card since I left the main ones at home. "Hey babe everything OK?" he asked over the phone.
"Everythings fine Mikey. Me and the girls are at this new dress shop in town and I just wanted to know if I could use the emergency card."
"Where's the others?"
"I left them at home. I didnt think I was going to buy anything."
"Whatever you want cutie. Buy the whole store if you like. Have fun."
"Love you lots babe! See you tonight!" I said hanging up.
"Well, what did he say?" Latoya asked
"Lets buy the whole store!" I said happily. We all laughed and picked out some more dresses. With a swipe of a card we were outta there. "We are definately coming back!" Janet said hauling her dresses to the trunk.
"I agree. These dresses are too sexy!" Latoya said
"Not to mention the lingere I bought with mine!" I said smiling hard. "OOOOO girl! Michael is going to whip the hell outta that!" Janet said smiling. We all laughed. We went home and had lunch that Nina made. We then watched a movie and they left.
I went upstairs adn finshed packing. Nina offered to help. "So...are you nervous?" she asked
"A part of me is, and the other part just wants to have a normal life again. I want to live happily with MIchael and our baby. Thats all Ive really wanted."
"Ya know, those who truly believe that good things can happen has a good life force. I pray for all of you, to protect you and to keep the faith, because once you lose it, there's really nothing to live up to. Keep the faith Mia, and I gaurentee you that blessings will countinue to consume you in the quickest manner." she said hugging me.
"Thank you Nina. You're always there when I need someone." I said. She smiled and walked out. I laid on the bed thinking about how it would go tommorow. I heard the front door close and Michael came in the bedroom.
"Hey beautiful." he said kissing me. I smiled and helped him take off his jacket. "You know I dont need help with that." he pointed out. He finshed taking off his clothes and threw on some pajama pants.
He hopped in the bed and I turned off the light. "MIchael?"
"Yea baby?"
"Are you nervous?"
"No......If Im helping someone I love, then my nerves can go take a hike." he said pulling me close. "Michael I love you." I said falling asleep.
"Mia...I love you more than you'll ever know."
