Michael's POV/Narration
December 30, 1988: 8:30am
Everything's coming along great; balloons, streamers, a banner, music, everything. I hope María likes it. I've been here for an hour and I haven't seen Alex or Michelle anywhere.
Michael: "Bill", I said running over to him by the door. "Have you seen Alex & Michelle?"
Bill: "No, I haven't. I thought they where backstage"
Michael: "I've looked everywhere. I can't find them. Thanks anyway"', I said walking away.
Bill: "No problem"
Chris: "Yo Mike!"
Michael: "Chris!", I said running to him. "Chris, have you seen my kids anywhere?"
Chris: "Oh, no sorry Mike. But where do you want this smoke machine?"
Michael: "Um.... Just put it on right center stage"
Chris: "Alright"
Just then I got a call. It was from María.
Michael: "Um.... Hello"
María: "Michael"
Michael: "Yes?"
María: By any chance, is Alex there with you?"
Michael: "Um..... N--No. Oh boy, I am such a bad father"
María: "Mmm Hmm, yeah. I thought so"
Michael: "I can tell your still mad at me...."
María: "You don't say..... Well, I have called you because I found Alex walking the streets all by himself..... Care to explain?"
Michael: "Well, I've been a bit distracted. With--- um..... It's a surprise.... For--- whoops got to go. Love you! Bye!!", and I hung up. Phew, that was a close one. María was about to find out that I'm throwing her a surprise party. Ok, now that I know Alex is with María----- oh boy, I hope Alex doesn't tell María about the surprise.
Michelle: "Daddy! Daddy!", she said running from backstage.
Michael: "Michelle!", I said crouching down to her. "What is it sweetheart?"
Michelle: "Do you need help?"
Michael: "Ohhh sweetie. Well, everything's all set up but would you like to help me out with the song I'm performing for Mommy?"
Michelle: "How?"
Michael: "Well, I need some help picking out a song to sing for her. Want to help me?"
Michelle: "Yeah!"
Michael: "Okay. Let's go", I said as I picked her up and walked to the studio.
