"Here! I'm here," I exclaimed, as I found my way through the sea of people, ignoring the fact that my head was more and more aching as time passed by.
"Ah, here she is," Carl smiled, and put his hand on my lower back. "Mr. Jackson, please meet Hayley Thames, one of the most passionate doctor I've ever met," he adressed the superstar who had Bethany on his lap.
"Pleased to meet you," Michael Jackson smiled, standing up. He offered me his hand for me to shake it. "I've heard only great things about you so far."
"I'm glad," I answered back, faking a smile, as the pain in my head was becoming unbearable. "N-Nice to meet you too, sir."
At the second my hand made contact with his, my eyes couldn't see, my ears couldn't hear, my limbs couldn't move. It's like I was drowning in an ocean of images of him, of flashes I couldn't understand with people I didn't know. The only thing that seemed to be there, omnipresent, was him, Michael Jackson. It's like I could feel him invading my mind, like he was taking place in there without my approval.
And then, nothing.
Nothing but darkness.

When I was a little girl, I worshiped Michael Jackson. He was my idol, and I always dreamed of meeting him one day. When he announced the This Is It residency in 2009 I remember vividly asking my dad if we could go and he didn't answer me, I didn't realize that it was a London-only thing, I assumed it was a regular tour and that he'd eventually come to the US, but obviously it never happened due to his sudden death that summer, so this is how I would have imagined meeting Michael if I got to see him.
