Part 9

Sakura.

****Sakura on Easter****

They haven't really done a big family get together for Easter until Sakura was about two. She got all dressed up and

looked so nice. She didn't know that she was going to dress up as the Easter Bunny. Michael begged her and Janet

suggested that he dressed up as one too. Michael quickly tried to say he couldn't find an outfit on Easter but the rest

of the family planned it.

All the nieces and nephews were giggling and so were the rest. Michael tried to walk normally but they had to

remind him that bunnies don't walk they hop. Sakura had tried to hop too but she usually tripped and failed

miserably. Michael tried to hold her but the fluffy stuff on the costume made her slip and didn't have a tight grip.

"I wish I had a pocket on this costume. You know like a kangaroo." Michael complained while hopping his way over

to his siblings.

"You aren't a kangaroo last time I checked." Jackie said snickering.

"Yeah...Shouldn't you go hop bunny boy?" Joe joked making Micharl turn red.

"Hop Bunny Boy..HOP!" They all yelled making Michael furious and made him hop to the other direction to the

children.

"Looks like he is with his own kind." Joe laughed while looking at Michael playing with the eggs.

The soon had an egg hunt and Sakura couldn't find any which sadden her. They all agreed to give her one egg from

their own find which soon made her happy and she thanked them.

****Michael's 40th Birthday****

Kai made Michael a birthday cake for his birthday and had Sakura write his name on it and since she was almost two

she couldn't really do that. Kai had guided her hand ﴾or more like held it and wrote it herself﴿ and at the end it turned

sloppy and almost mutant looking. Kai thought this was a disaster but remembered Michael will love it still. It had to

taste good though.

"Oh who is...... I can't read this." Michael said looking over the cake and probably not knowing it was his birthday.

"It says Michael on it." Kai said smiling an extra big smile.

"Oh...Who's Michael? One of our employees? Did I not get that in my news feed?" Michael asked looking at the

"News Feed" which was a chalkboard with announcements. They didn't write it down since they thought he would

remember his own birthday....Guess not.

"MR. JACKSON! It's your birthday today!" Kai exclaimed with excitement and a hint of anger.

"Oh. Well isn't this embarrassing..." Michael said looking down turning read.

Sakura was currently pointing at the birthday cake and maybe tempted to eat it. Who knows?

"Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday Michael, Happy Birthday to you!" Kai yelled breaking

the silence.

"Daddy!" Sakura yelled hearing the Michael at the end making them laugh.

Michael soon cut up the cake and they all ate it. May this be a reminder to the employees that they now have to

write Michael's birthday on the News Feed.

****Awkward Valentine's Day****

Michael didn't have anyone lovely to share it with so he got a date but first he had to keep Sakura happy and they

pretended to have a lovely tea party like fancy and respectable people do.

"Will you like some more tea Miss. Jackson?" Michael asked with a fabulous ﴾horrible﴿ British Accent.

Sakura nodded her head taking a nibble of the chocolate chip cookie in her hand. Michael had a pink boa on and he

drank this real tea while Sakura got orange juice which he thought wasn't fair but whatever. He poured her the "tea"

into her "china." ﴾Plastic﴿

When the date came around it was about night. They had left and when they came back it was around eleven. Sakura

was on the couch trying to fall asleep without Michael but she couldn't. She was currently tossing and turning on the

couch making a lot of noise.

"Serenity why are you up so late?" Michael exclaimed while running over to the couch.

Serenity shrugged and tugged onto his shirt. Michael put her into his arms and cradled her and tried to make her go

to sleep. She soon fell asleep.

"Michael I see that your daughter fell asleep. If you don't mind I have to be going. See you later sometime?" The lady

said smiling at Sakura in his arms.

"Okay..." Michael said secretly melting inside.

"Bye." She said whispering in his ear and walking off to the door.

All of these flashed before Michael's eyes when he was in the ambulance almost not surviving. All he saw was people

moving all around... Constant sobs were heard and constant hands on his chest. He had been so drugged up he felt

like he was hallucinating.

What happened? What happened when he didn't depend on drugs or medication to get him to go to sleep? What

happened to the constant happiness that had got him to stop? Sakura was one of the only happiness he got since

she didn't treat him like a monster or as some person who is abnormally white. He was a normal person and not

Michael Jackson the entertainer and celebrity....he was Michael Jackson her father.

When will this nightmare stop? Well.... There is a hint....It has only just begun..
