"They can't go through what I did! They just can't!" *** Michael Jackson has endured an abundance of trauma that threatens to tear him apart from the inside out. For the young, twenty-something, he fears that his two youngest siblings will also be subjected to the cruelty that he was put through by his father now that he is no longer under the same roof. His musicality is the one thing he holds on to to distract him from his dreadful days and sleepless nights; a coping mechanism learned in therapy. With the help of his therapist, Celeste Woods, Michael is navigating his way through the pins and needles of life, trying to win the battle before they imbed themselves into his spirit, permanently. - Voted as 2022 MJFA's "Best Hidden Gem" story.

MJAwards 2020 Winner! FINISHED!! {Jackson 5 - The Jackson's Era} "But do you... love me? And not like how you love your fans Michael; I mean... how a boyfriend loves his girl or... a husband loves his wife." ... "I don't exactly know what that type of love is to determine if I do or not." ... ."Well, I think love is when you strive to always see someone happy and be there for them when they are down. Helping them fight each and every battle they have to face. Think about them nonstop, get butterflies when you see them, feel shocks every time they touch you or kiss your lips. They're someone you can't and never want to live without. That's what love is to me anyway." ...after what seemed like an eternity, I feel his soft hands gently grab my face as our lips come together as one. "Then yes." He whispers with his lips brushing against mine. "I love you so much Shanelle."

Janet is being smothered in a lifeless marriage and she just wants to get out and have fun. She picks someone who may give her more than she asked for.
